New book! “Fan letters to a stripper, a Patti Waggin tail”
🕑 Added 2022-03-17 15:07:44 +0000 UTCIn researching an upcoming episode of American pickers, I’m going to be talking about an incredible collection from one of History‘s most exciting Burlesque queens, Patti Waggin!
Not only was she an incredible dancer but she was also a motorcycle racer! She’s got a really wonderful and wild history. My friend Bella Sin is sending me this book in the mail right now in preparation for the episode. I can’t wait to actually talk about her on History, on our show, where Burlesque and motorcycle history are often discussed in depth.
I’m so excited to learn more about Patti Waggin, to view more of her collection, to understand how to steward her history correctly, and to entertain all of you with her incredible story! If you would like a preview, I believe this book is still in distribution. You might be able to find it still in print. I haven’t looked for it myself because Bella Sin gifted it to me but I’m sure it’s out there if you look for it.
If you’re running short on funds and you can’t afford this book right now, here’s a great article about her that you can read for free!
You will be researching her at the same time as me, I love that! I would be happy to write a full blog on her except I haven’t been able to do all the necessary research yet so join me in my research a Patti Waggin for an upcoming episode of American pickers.

Dagnabbit, woman! Another title for my growing collection of burlesque books. I'm convinced that my "unfinished business" when I die will be all the unread books in my library. On a somewhat related note, one of my old Army buddies is named Bob Brill. That ain't him, though.
