Ann Austin – A Witches Brew! (Original)


There was some debate going on over the image I posted of the Avec Plaisir No.5 cover and if the model was actually Ann Austin. I wasn’t aware there was any doubt, as I immediately recognized it as Ann, but to confirm, here is the original 35 mm Pamar slide of the same shot sent over by Kevin. I’ve also had it confirmed, by an avid Ann collector, that it is indeed Ann. The only outstanding question being why is this the only shot we’ve found of Ann posing with this glass, and where are the other shots, if there are any?

One thing that no one seems to know, though, is what happened to Ann, as she seems to have disappeared after her modelling career and is she still with us today? Anyone else know?

Valerie Williams – Showing Plenty of Curves!

Three beautiful shots of Valerie Williams posing nude in the studio from restored silver gelatin photo’s. All three shots show off Valerie’s curvy body superbly, and I’ve published the middle shot before, but this is a better version. I’ve seen these identified as being taken by Harrison Marks and a similar set does appear in his Glamour Guide, but I’m unsure if this set is by GHM, but it could well be.

Dily Rubens – How to Wear Pyjama’s!


A wonderful shot of a familiar model with an unfamiliar name showing us how good she looks in PJ’s! It is of course Angela Duncan, but these 10 x 8 prints were advertised under the name Dily Rubens, which is a new name to me. I have a few other shots of Angela posing in the short blonde wig, but always thought she went under the name Trudi (Trudy) Pink for those shots? They do all seem to be from the same location, so possibly the same shoot, but not 100% sure?

Clyda’s Barn Door Double View!


I more refined and tame shot of Clyda Rosen than we normally saw. Looking stylish in her shorter swept hair, we get a topless view of her posing outside against an old wooden barn door. A beautiful shot of Clyda and her magnificent pair!

Busting Out With Angela!


I’ve managed to get a full set of 36 images of the ‘Oh Nurse!’ set, featuring Angela in the countryside dressed and stripping out of a nurse’s uniform. I’d published those I’d previously found, but I’ll get the rest edited and published when I can. This one is an early shot in the set as it has Angela still clothed, if only just, but bursting out from her tight-fitting bra!

I’ve also had it recently confirmed that her real name was Trudy Eyre by Terry Sparks, or that was the name her wrote on the cheques when he paid her for modelling sessions with him. I didn’t know Terry had even photographed Angela/Trudy, but he’s sent me through a selection of his shots of her and some look very familiar indeed and ended up in some popular men’s publications back in the late 1960s. But those shots are for another day and another post. :)

Susie Shaw by Harrison Marks (1962)


A stunning view of Susie Shaw taken by Harrison Marks laying on a carpet in his flat and published in Kamera No.48 P33 (1962). There are five shots of Susie in this edition, either on the carpet such as this one, or posing in the kitchen. I even have one of the original negatives from this set, which I will post at a later date. Susie is a new GHM model to me, but she sure had a fine figure and bosom on her!
