It's hard to find information about the pre-sleaze era of Baltimore 's Block (a time when H. L. Mencken dubbed burlesque strippers "ecdysiasts" from the Greek word ekdysis , meaning "casting off" because of the way they shed their clothing like snake skin), but it does exist and Charm City's Playboy Magazine is an invaluable resource for researching the clubs and performers of that era. This was the golden era of Burlesque, the days when they "sold the sizzle and not the steak," a time when bands played down on the Block (as part of what were billed as "burly revusicals") and when actual "Striptease Artists" (as opposed to the skanky junkie prostitutes of today) danced in "Gentlemen's Clubs" on Baltimore street and similar venues around town. Places like Joey Jackman's Zebra Room, Sweeney's Lounge, Cy Bloom's The Place in the Alley (which featured Inga and Dottie, "curvaceous giggle-water servers"), the Fabulous Chavez Brothers' Club Basement, Pete Boinis' Hunka Munka Lounge, The Oasis Nite Club ("World's Worst Show! World's Best Time!"), and Bettye Mills' Stork Clu (accelerateddecrepitude.blogspot.com....chive.html)
The Pinup: The photo booth experience at Annie's Cocktail Lounge was our overall favorite. The sign over the door sets a "let's be bad" vibe from the start, depicting a devilish Bettie Page babe sprawled in a martini glass. Inside are red-painted walls, zebra-print curtains and a decorating scheme that includes velvet Elvis paintings and a skull motif. The wicked décor belies the comfortable mood of the bar, which has a friendly staff and laid-back karaoke on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Walk around the bar to the pool table room to find the photo booth. This one has a brushed-aluminum exterior and a collection of sample photos, many of which feature owner and bartender Annie herself. The price is steep for your strip of four black-and-white shots - a cool $4. But it may be worth it; the resulting pictures have a faintly sepia tone and the sharpest details of all the booths we tried (www.photobooth.net....paperID=26)
