Another great coloured version of an image I published yesterday of Marie Provost by Oldiznewagain over on Tumblr.
More Marie Provost
After not being able to find anything on Marie Provost to start with I’ve now come across a further two images of her.
These two shots are definitely by GHM as they seem to be in the bedroom of his flat in Gerrard Street. They are also very similar to those taken of Frankie Young in Kamera No.56, so puts them around 1964, so Kamera No.61?
The eyes and face on the top shot look very edited, but not by me I may add!
The Look! – A June Palmer Original
This wasn’t going to be my intended post of an original June Palmer shot this week, but when I saw the above shot from John W last night I just had to share!
June sure could work the camera as everything about this shot just oozes sensuality! The look in her eyes (which are green!), the chin resting slightly on the pushed up cleavage, or the tongue brushing across her teeth!
Absolutely stunning!
The image comes from a 35mm slide scan and is pretty much untouched, other than the odd speck of dirt removed and every detail can be seen in such an intimate and close-up shot. It’s part of a set of 8 photo’s that John got from Teri Martine herself, but it’s unknown who took the shots. The Sheepskin rug makes another appearance and a chaise lounge in other shots, so it’s an educated guess that these were probably taken at Strobe Studio’s and by Arthur Howell.
It goes without saying that the JP images John provides are blowing me away, so I know I say it, but thanks must go to John for sharing his collection with me and then you.

Aphrodisia Review
There is a great review over on Gavcrimson’s blog about Aphrodisia, the 1970 glamour film from Harrison Marks, which came in two parts. The first part came with the description – ‘A film featuring eight characters in sexual action to excite and amuse. A story in the 007 style with fabulous birds and sexy bad men including one virile young man called Captain X. Meet Cherry Doubleday, blonde innocent and beautiful, and a group of delectable girls’
What interested me was that ‘Captain X’ was played by none other than Emmett Hennessy, who contacted me and this site to see if I had a copy of Aphrodisia. Unfortunately I hadn’t, but I’m glad to see Emmett got in contact with Gav and has been able to acquire a copy of the film he starred in.
Excellent review, so go take a read as I’m always amazed at the amount of details Gav manages to find!

Breath in Monique!
Another original image, this time Monique Devereux against the backdrop of a brick wall! I must admit that MD isn’t one of my favourite GHM models she always looks like she’s ‘sucking everything in’ when being photographed and it just doesn’t look natural. Saying that she appears the same in nearly all of her shots, so perhaps I’m doing her an injustice!
On a more trivia note, we know that Monique Devereux (Monique Leitzau) was the name given to her by GHM, but was he a fan of the TV western, Hotel de Paree (1959–1960) as one of the main characters played by Judi Meredith was Monique Deveraux! I’m never sure of the Devereux spelling with GHM, as seen it in all these versions Deveraux, Devereaux, Devereux and I’ve probably used all versions at different times! Add Marie Deveraux into the mix and it justs get damn confusing!

Margaret Nolan & The Four Poster Bed
I published this same image back when I started this site, but thought it was worth a revisit as I have a larger and better version! A number of the four poster bed shots appeared in Kamera No.66 (1965), but I don’t recall seeing this colour image as being amongst them.
