Nancy Roberts – Sheplegh Sweetheart!

Another from the set of Nancy Roberts taken in the grounds of Sheplegh Court in 1959, when she was a mere 20 years old! Looking at the details on the box of these glass plates, I now recognize the handwriting as that of Leslie L. Bainbridge, editor of H&E (Health & Efficiency) magazine and then Girl Illustrated. A stunning shot of Nancy who seems to appear in many of Bainbridge’s early H&E magazines and several ‘naturist’ films, including the new one in my collection ‘World Without Clothes’.

Nancy Roberts – Just a Sun Hat For Shade! (1959)


A stunning shot of Nancy Roberts posing on a beach with only a sun hat for shade. It comes from a photographic glass plate and was taken in September 1959 at the beach near Sheplegh Court, Devon, and the accompanying notes put Nancy at 20 years old in the shot.

What a body, what a smile, and thankfully I have several others of Nancy at the beach to share along with this. :)
