About the Group

Greetings and welcome to Classic Cancan 2! This is a continuation of Classic Cancan (https://classiccancan.blogspot.com/), which has reached capacity for new photos, but which is still active. Please make all new posts here rather than at Classic Cancan. The main discussion site, where most people post, is CancanGroup.io (https://groups.io/g/CancanGroup). Please go there for daily text postings. These are sites for the discussion and appreciation of the Cancan in all its forms, from its genesis in Paris during La Belle Epoche, to its appearance in London, San Francisco and The Old West. Owned and operated by the online cancan community, Classic Cancan 2 is open to everybody with a genuine interest in the World's Greatest Dance. Please note, however, that Classic Cancan 2 is a G-Rated group, so please don't post anything objectionable. While the content of this site may be described as slightly 'risque,' this is not an adult community in any sense of the word, and anything deemed inappropriate will be deleted immediately.

Frog War Fund Carnival

 


 TCU students had fun for victory at the Frog War Fund Carnival Friday night. One of the three scenes illustrates here. Three students, left to right, Jean Engleman, Georgia Collins and Norma Purvines are can-can dancers. Three can-can beauties are posed showing their kicking form. All wearing dancing dresses with a bow clipped to the top of head. They are standing near the bleachers, holding each other by the waist with one knee raised up. Published in The Fort Worth Star-Telegram morning edition, February 12, 1944.
