Lip Smacking Marianne!

The final two shots I have of Marianne Morris posing on a beach in Rhodes taken by Terry Sparks, plus two German magazine articles featuring the Rhodes 3, again obviously taken by Terry. Marianne looks fantastic in the two original images from Terry and although I love the shot of her running her tongue over her lips, I think I prefer the second shot. I just love the pose of her laying back on the wet sand, with the reflection of her body showing in the wet ripples of the sand.  A perfectly composed shot from Terry and a great additional prop of the large necklace!

The two magazine articles show all three of the Rhodes models, Marianne Morris, Venetia Day and Dinah Challen posing in the sea and on the rocks and love the colour shot of all three of them. Dinah in those long black boots and blue panties looks fantastic and a shame I’ve n ot got any of those from Terry :)

Thanks as always to Terry for sharing his original images with me and still a few more Venetia Day shots to go before I run out!

A Day in The Sun!

A second shot of Venetia Day by Terry Sparks whilst on location in Rhodes in 1971. Unlike the first shot here, this is a wider shot of her, soaking wet with her arms out wide, as she stands in the sea.  I love the pose and how the water glistens on her wet dark body. Another stunning shot shared by Terry :)

Dinah Challen – The Trio Complete!

Another shot from Terry Sparks and this is Dinah Challen and completes the trio of models taken and photographed in Rhodes. The three models are Dinah, Venetia Day and Marianne Morris and I’ve republished the image of all three in the surf below. Terry provided some information about Dinah, but he lost touch with her after we returned to the UK. As far as he is aware these were the only pictures she ever had taken, but he may well be wrong.

A Nice Day For It!


After Marianne Morris from the ‘Rhodes Rears’ shot by Terry Sparks, we now have the second of the trio in the stunning form of Venetia Day. Terry sent these through after my last Marianne post and I must admit I hadn’t come across Venetia before, but glad I have now! A stunning shot of her body as she poses in the sea for Terry and I love how the water glistens on her body in the above shot.  After seeing Venetia I went off to do a little research about her and found out much more about her. She caused quite a stir at the Earls Court Car Show in 1971, by posing in nothing other than a pair of white bikini bottom’s on the F1 cars from that year. The same year she also appeared in Mayfair and made several soft appearances in glamour films.

More Marianne by Terry

           

Some more shots of Marianne Morris (modelling as Vicki Pascale) who has already appeared on this site before with two other models. Terry took Marianne and the other two models to Rhodes in the May of 1971 and took the above shots of her posing in the sea. The top shot comes direct from Terry’s collection, hence the better quality, but on my Internet trawls I also found the two page colour shots of Marianne.  At least one of the images was obviously taken by Terry in Rhodes and these images were published in a German magazine called Das Neue Sunny Girl Vol.5 No.3. I’ve also found several other images of the 3 models posing for Terry in Rhodes that appear in other German publications, so will post those separately.

Finally Terry has now sent me several of his own shots of the black girl that appears in the ‘Rhodes 3‘ shot, who was a model named Venetia Day, but more of her to come later as well :)

Voracious Vicki!

As I’ve just come back from my holidays, what better way to kick things off again than with a beach view from the Terry Sparks archive! This is Marianne Morris (modelling as Vicki Pascale) who has already appeared on this site before with two other models here, she is the one in the middle. Terry took Marianne and the other two models to Rhodes in the May 1971 and this shot of her kneeling in the shallows is one of four that Terry sent through. Marianne later went on to do a spread in Mayfair and also had quite a large part in the film “Vampyres”, also as a model she worked under the model agency run by non-other than June Palmer! What a great body, but not sure if that is a real necklace or a set of buoys around her neck! Thanks to Terry for a fabulous shot.

Franni Leigh in The Sea! (Original)


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.

Pip’s Perfect Wet Look (Original)

Two shots of model Pip Paget taken by Terry Sparks and posing in the sea near Southampton in 1971. Loving the blue bikini bottom’s in these shots, but loving the very wet white top even more, as it’s become almost transparent in places, allowing us to see Pip’s  nipples and tits as it clings to them. Thanks to Terry for these two terrific shots of Pip.

Fanni’s Fanny (Original)

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!

Pips Perfect Pose! 1971 (Original)

I think Terry likes to tease me with some of his photo’s that he sends through and this one is a good example. Another unknown model called Pip Paget (real name?) that Terry photographed in the studio and as Terry recalls – ‘Attached are some shots of a girl called Pip Paget. I don’t think she did much professionally, she mainly worked around the Amateur photo studios. They were taken near Southampton (coming soon!) and in the studio and taken in 1971’.

What a shot of her posing under that shower with water running down over her face and tits, fantastic! I can’t believe this was taken back in 1971 and it reminds me a bit of the 1980’s page 3 shots (sorry Terry!).
