Dedicated to the published work of Harrison Marks & other prominent photographers of the 1950's, 60's and early 70's. Along with popular glamour models such as June Palmer, Pamela Green, Dawn Grayson and others
A restored print of Caroline Coon posing on a couch in all her fabulous glory, sent over by Kevin! I’ve posted plenty of retouched shots of Caroline, but I do enjoy seeing these shots of her where her thick bush is on display for all to see and enjoy.
The model known only as Neve/Neva posing for Harrison Marks on the Lantern Cottage Set from Nature’s Intention Vol.1 No.1 P28 (1969). A stunningly beautiful woman facially, with a very Latino look, but she also had a great body to show off, with a magnificent full pussy on show as well!
Just when I thought I’d run out of stuff sent through by Terry Sparks, a load of new images of his work arrive in the mail from him :)
This is Cherry Gilham who Terry discovered in 1971 and this is the first nude she ever posed for in March 1972, along with 12 others that Terry sent through from the same set. They all show Cherry posing amongst the cushions with this chain bikini bottom and range from topless like this to fully nude exposing a fine bush! Cherry is probably more well known for appearing with Benny Hill in the 1970s on the ‘Benny Hill Show’, as one of the bevy of beauties that used to regularly appear on the show. I was a big fan of the show myself and used to love seeing the speeded up chase sequences where Benny chased the scantily clad women, or they chased him. All good tongue in cheek smutty fun back then, but it seems behind the scenes things got a bit more naughty! Cherry also admitted in her autobiography that she gave Benny several blowjobs in his house after filming was over for the day, naughty girl! As well as working on the Benny Hill show, Cherry also appeared numerous times on the Sun’s Page 3, several film parts and wrote a regular column in the Daily Mail newspaper. There is plenty out there about Cherry if you Google her name, but I, for one, love this shot from Terry and the others that I’ll sort out soon.
A big thank you as ever to Terry for allowing me to share his work from back then. I find his insight and little anecdotes about the models and his time with them so fascinating and always a pleasure to share.
The start of a new set of photo’s sent through by John from a 35 mm filmstrip containing 37 various images on June in the red stockings. This is a more mature June with the fuller figure and bosom and full hairy bush on view, as she poses in the studio.
It’s unknown as to the place or date that of these shots, but looking at June, I’d have an educated guess at the early 1980s. Still a fantastic shot of an older June, and even at this age (40’s) she still had it! More of the ‘Red Stocking Strip’ to come soon, and thanks as always to John for a remarkable new set of June.
The final shot of Franni Leigh I have that was sent through by Terry Sparks. This one has Franni posing in the sea down at a favourite location of Terry’s, Pegwell Bay in Kent and although there is clear blue sky it still looks a little nippy in that sea! Terry confirmed that this was a good location to use because as he says – ‘You were right about Franni Leigh being photographed at Pegwell Bay. That was a location I used a lot in the 1960’s and early 70’s. It was an area frequented by the Gay boys, this of course was when attitudes to homosexuality were very different to today, so it had the advantage that as soon as you produced a camera everyone promptly disappeared and you had the beach to yourself.’
So you could say Franni took her clothes off and all the men went running in the opposite direction, not a normal reaction to such a beauty :) Thanks to Terry for the anecdote and cracking shot of Franni.
A great on location shot of Wendy James from an original negative. Taken in 1966 this shot was taken by Harrison Marks down on Bedruthen beach in Cornwall, with similar shots of Wendy appearing in Kamera on location 1966. This shot gives us a much better view of Wendy than in the publication, as we get to see an uncensored view of her gloriously untouched pussy. Wendy was one of those models that preferred the natural look over the smooth shaven look. At retouchers nightmare, but heaven for us :)
The second shot of Franni Leigh (not her real name!) by Terry Sparks taken in 1972 for Club International by Paul Raymond. This shot is very progressive for it’s time, as it shows that things were becoming more ‘open’ in the 1970’s. Not only were shots becoming less subtle, they were also less censored with full on pubic hair shots that even showed the labia, such as above. I’m not saying shots like this weren’t taken before, but now they were being published with more on show and less imagination needed!
Thanks to Terry for this very colourful and open shot!
A stunning shot of an unknown ebony model with a fantastic pair of huge tits! Throw in the beautiful black pussy and boots and this shot is a winner in my books. One of two negatives sent to me by Jim Barker from Nostalgia Publications, he originally thought they were of Sylvia Bayo. I’m sad to say I don’t think they are Sylvia, as the tits and nipples and body proportions look different, but Sylvia does appear in this shot!
I love the whole composition of this shot from the way she is stood with that red dress open exposing her big tits and pussy, the black boots and the reflection of her face in the full mirror. So much going on, you don’t know where to look next (apart from the obvious places!).
Once you do get past the obvious and start to look at the rest of the shot, you will notice the adverts and images of models on the wall around the mirror and room. The models I do recognize are Sue Bond (directly above the mirror) and Sylvia Bayo (above the model’s left shoulder). The others I can’t quite distinguish even at full size, although the portrait of the model and child top left look familiar, and I can’t quite make out the name on the facial shot?
Finally, I just love the adverts on the wall for men’s trousers! ‘Slack Power’ and ‘For Whom The Bells Toll’ classic!
Update: Thanks to friend Gav who has pointed out that this shot is actually a still from the 1971 GHM glamour film ‘Tailor Made’ released by Maximus International. The synopsis refers to the model as ‘Ronnie’ but doubt that is her real name, but at least we know it was GHM.
Update 2: Thanks to Arty in the comments, we’ve identified the model as none other than Veronica Diemen, another of my favourite black models. Woo-hoo, more Veronica to come. :)
Another different model this morning from Terry and this is Franni Leigh (not her real name!). According to Terry she was originally a successful fashion model and this was one of the few times she did nude modelling. This shot and another I have were taken in 1972, with similar shots by Terry used in Club International by Paul Raymond. Franni appeared across several pages of the 4th edition of Club International in April 1972, including a double page spread (boom boom!) as centrefold of the month. Unfortunately Terry only sent me the 3 shots he has remaining. The fact that this was the early 1970’s and a Paul Raymond publication means we start to see a lot more of Franni than normal, including pubic hair and more, which you will see in a further shot to come!
As I’d not come across Franni before, so I did a search and found that there is very little of her out there on the web, but she did appear on the cover and inside pages of Parade (14th & 21st October, 1972). Those pictures show Franni posing on a beach and I believe those were also taken by Terry down at Pegwell Bay in Kent, as the third shot I have is of her posing in the sea at that location. So were they taken at the same time as those of Bobby Sparrow ?
The second shot of German model Sieglinda Strauch by Terry Sparks, this time posing with nothing more than a guitar in a bedroom at Ewhurst Manor in June 1966. A full on frontal shot showing off SS’s slender frame, small tits and magnificent pussy.
