- Irish McCalla
A fair Nebraska colleen came to California to seek her fortune, wound up as an African jungle queen
The McCalla measurements are fabulous—39-inch bust, 25-inch waist, 36-inch hips. Irish keeps in trim by swimming, surfboard riding and generally acting athletic.
Soft lighting can’t hide the form that made Irish one of the most popular models in California.
