Nice Dimples June!


Another original shot of JP taken by Arthur Howell, probably late 1960’s that I’ve never seen before.*  Converted from a medium format 120 film negative and all I’ve done to the shot is tidy up some dirt on the image and tweaked the colour (originally a sepia colour).

I’m really pleased to be sharing these unique shots, as I think they should be shared but please where possible if you share elsewhere link back to this original.

Connoisseurs Choice Vol.4 No.1 Cover Featuring June Palmer


A small 14 by 21 cm (5½ by 8¼ inches) magazine consisting of 24 pages of mostly full page photo’s of models nude, topless and in various types of lingerie.   Undated but probably late 1950s, and this copy contains 4 full page shots of June Palmer that I’ve not seen before (I’ll scan & publish them soon!)

There are also some great adverts for photo sets and models for hire with some well known faces, such as Lorraine Burnett and Virginia Green to name two!

June Palmer – Original 'Calamity June' 16mm Film Scan

And now for something completely different and original!  A scan of an original piece of the colour 16mm film ‘Calamity June’. 

The first thing I noticed was it was in colour, as the copy of ‘Calamity June’ I have is black and white!  This was from a reel of offcuts and out-takes from Arthur Howell, provided to a contact of mine John*, who had hoped there would be enough to make his own version of the film, but sadly there wasn’t. At least there are some nice stills to share.
 
Arthur told John he had sold the 16mm colour originals of his films to George Harrison Marks, so who knows where they are today, but a 16mm copy, surfaced on Australian eBay a few years ago and went for about £5000!
