I am looking for artistic interpretation's and references of a "gold digger" or "a beautiful women who likes money". Surprisingly I can't find anything. Does anyone know where I can? I've searched google images, alltheweb pictures, and gettyimages with no luck.

There was a series of movies from the depression, starting with Gold Diggers of 1933, that popularized the term. I'd check those out, especially the first, which is quite wonderful. Also, a lot of Jean Harlow's roles could be considered gold diggers.

Also, check out the cartoons of Peter Arno and the other New Yorker cartoonists of the 20's and 30's.

You need look no further than Anna Nicole Smith. She is almost a cartoon character herself and a classic example of a gold digger.

I think there was a Carl Barks painting of Uncle Scrooge in the klondike that had a gold digger lookin lady duck in it. Vague memories from my childhood. I'll have to go check next I'm at my parents' house. Anyone know what the hell I'm talking about?

If it looks like Marylin Monroe, etc., sounds too dumb to walk and chew gum at the same time, and dresses in $5000 outfits, it's reference for a gold-digger.
