Margaret Nolan – A Pensive Pose!

I wonder what Margaret was thinking about as she stared off in to the distance for this shot by Harrison Marks.  She doesn’t look that happy, so probably cold or uncomfortable sat naked on that wooden stool! Still a very good moody shot of Margaret.

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.
