Rare Charlie Girl Pics

Jack Condon: Charlie's Angels Memorabilia
- Guinness World Records

Shelley was THE quintessential Charlie Girl and appeared on many, many ads for the brand around the world. She was THE Charlie Girl from 1976 to 1982; and she catapulted the brand (as well as herself) to iconic status. Ads (as well as many promotional materials) with her image were everywhere. Jack Condon, the Guinness World Record holder of the largest collection of Charlie's Angels memorabilia in the world, has some of the rarest Shelley Hack as THE Charlie Girl promo pics in his collection.

promo pics (from around 1980) can be spotted

In the YouTube video, Jack Condon: Charlie's Angels Memorabilia - Guinness World Records ( check it out at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rB-ro50CZzk ), a rare pic of Charlie Girl Shelley in a tank top, satin short shorts, striped over-the-calf sports socks, matching wrist bands and sneakers being lifted by (most likely) two male athletes appears in timecode 2:22. It is one of the rare promo pics of Charlie Girl Shelley among Jack's collection. In the pic of Jack Condon with his Charlie's Angels Memorabilia collection (which appeared in the Jan 20, 1998 issue of the Star tabloid) another rare promo pic of Charlie Girl Shelley can be seen in the background (along with the previously mentioned one). This one is a pic of Shelley playing the piano with her Charlie perfume ad co-star Bobby Short looking on. It's from a pic set used for the French-language ad for the latest Charlie Hit Parade colors of 1980 (check it out at: Setting the Tone) Shelley, as always, was gorgeous in both pics. Let's hope clearer and more complete versions are posted by Shelley fans in the coming days.
