SUSAN ROCES IN DISNEYLAND (circa 1958)


I found these rare photos of Ms. Susan Roces with Asian beauties in Flickr.com courtesy of  Mr. Paul Eric Darvin (thank you, Sir, for giving your permission to share these photos here!).  These photos were taken when Ms. Susan represented the Philippines in the Pan Pacific Festival in 1958 held in San Francisco, USA.  The following year, she represented again the Philippines in the said Festival.
