Carol Doda Undressed
Carol Doda was a famous stripper in San Francisco in the 1960s. She worked at the Condor Club and the large lit sign in front of the club featured a picture of her. Doda's act began with a grand piano lowered from the ceiling by hydraulic motors; Doda would be atop the piano dancing. Doda was renowned for her big bust, one of the first well known to be surgically enhanced. Her bust was a size 34B before silicone injections increased her to a size 44D.

Doda appeared in ''Head,'' the 1968 film created by and featuring The Monkees.
In the late 1960s through early 1970s, Doda was the spokesmodel for San Jose, California television station KICU-TV|KICU Channel 36. Filmed from the waist up and wearing clothes which amplified her most prominent physical assets, she would coo "You're watching the Perfect 36 in San Jose." She would also occasionally appear on-air to do editorial commentary on the issues of the day.
Doda retired from stripping in the 1980s and now runs a lingerie shop in San Francisco.

Nice to see someone else remembers Carol. I never met her however, I did ask the barker outside The Condor for a piano ride. He got really pissed off. It seems the day before some night manager was killed on that piano doing one of the dancers. She lived but was trapped under his dead fat ass until the next day. Only in America!

Carol,
No you do not know me. No you have never met me. Yes, I did attend one of your shows at the Condor.
I was one of the young men at the first showing of the topless bathing suit down at the Marina Green in San Francsico, just outside the Presidio. I watched as the police came to get you. Yes, I screamed comments at the police. Of course, in those days you had not quite grown up. You did that later.
Thank you for being a part of my life in SF and the military.
I want to wish you the very best. You made life worth living.
