Exciting Magazine 2023


A magazine cover, but not quite what it seems! As followers will know, I have a collection of European magazines published by Nordisk Bladcentral in the late 1960s. These were Cover Girl and Exciting and featuring some more open and expressive models by the likes of Serge Jacques & Belorgery. Exciting published 32 editions in total, but is now very hard to find.

Above is not a missing edition, but a new cover created by me. The image is one of my originals, but I’ve recreated the cover, including the title logo and font. A bit of fun, and I’m sure if I had a few more hours I could recreate an authentic version of a full magazine. Especially with the amount of images and content I have in my collection.

Tina Graham – A Coloured Angelic Pose!

Over the last few months, as well as continuing to edit my vast archive, I’ve also been playing around with colouring some of my original images. In the past I’ve avoided this as I’ve seen various attempts to do this with varying degrees of success. Most are either too skin toned in colour or end up having a painted effect and losing the details.

So after many years of using various tools to edit photo’s I gave it a go! The aim being to create a coloured version that looks as though it was originally taken in colour without losing the details. The above shot of Tina Graham is one of my better attempts, as for every successful coloured version (In my view!) I had about 8 failed versions. Some photos lend themselves to colour, whereas others have too much going on to get the colouring looking right.

I know some of you out there hate the idea of originals being coloured, and I totally get that. This is more of an experiment to see how close I can get to an authentic colour version. I have a small gallery of different models I’ve tried, and I sneaked a few onto the site in the last few weeks (guess which ones?)

So, what do you think? Success or fail, good or bad, and want more?

Shelia's Kinky Descent


Variety is the spice of life they say and this is a different side of the 1960s. A semi kinky/fetish shot of UK model Shelia Sexton posing on the stairs in PVC boots, studded collar and cuffs. Taken in 1969 it’s part of a large collection of contact sheets featuring fetish/bondage and domination, some featuring well known models back then.

This comes from a set of Shelia posing in and out of this outfit, including PVC mask and ball gag! A stunning model with a fabulous figure highlighted by the black PVC boots and outfit. :)

Kamera Club – 10 Years & Counting!

Kamera Club enters its 10th year and keeps on going! It’s now been on its new platform with WordPress since last March when I moved it across and fingers crossed not one issue! A few updates on the site and going forward. I’m slowly catching up with posts that disappeared from the old site, so you may see the odd duplicated post or image you’ve already seen. The members galleries are expanding and due to popular demand I’ve re-introduced ‘Readers Wives’.

Finally, I’ve decided to keep going with the website for at least another year, as I’m still enjoying the posts and site and still getting positive feedback. Now the downside!

  • Membership renewal is due at the beginning of March. For existing members of the site, that means a nominal £5 annual fee will be required to have continued member’s access. New Members that signed up this year will continue to get access until next year for no extra fee.
  • So, on 1st March, the members’ password will be changing. To be added to the renewal mail with the new password, just use the donate button with your £5, and I’ll make sure you get the continued access.
  • All funds just got back into hosting the site and keep it running, and anything you provide is always appreciated.

Finally, thank you to everyone for the continued support of the site as it enters its 10th year ;)

A Bedroom Bush!


Another hairy view from the inside of Exciting No.21 (1968). This time a very nice black and white shot of a model in white heels and stockings on the bed showing off her bush!

Caroline by Paul (Readers Wives)


Time for a repost of a submission to the readers wives section, this time the stunning Caroline by member Paul McQ. Paul contacted me with a selection of shots of Caroline from back in the 80s taken at various locations with his Polaroid, 110 and then moving onto a Canon A1. This and other he sent are scans of actual photo’s and back then it wasn’t so easy to produce photo’s of this type without taking the negatives to a specialist developer or risking it through Boots! :)

A stunning set of photo’s that members get to see fully, including more of Caroline’s body and bush, and she even modelled for Knave magazine’s Beautiful Beginners feature in 1981. Thanks to Paul for the fabulous photo’s and hope you all enjoy. :)

Exciting No.26 – Front & Rear!


I now have 17 editions of Exciting in my growing collection, and they are certainly different from the magazine style of Harrison Marks and other UK photographers. Most shots are by Serge Jacques, and he certainly had a more open and differing style for his models to pose. Not everyone’s taste, but the style of the magazines and models has intrigued me, so thought I’d explore them a bit more! ;)

From my growing collection of Exciting Magazines, the front, and rear cover of Exciting No.26 from 1969. This curly haired beauty isn’t shy in showing off her front and rear either, with two very open but classic continental poses on view. I’m not sure if her hair is natural or a wig, but the collar and cuffs certainly seem to match!

Christine & The Return of Readers Wives


The long overdue return of the Readers Wives section and Christine! Since I moved the website last year, the readers wives section has been on hiatus, but now it’s back! There is now a gallery for members to view all the readers wives and the views on offer, including Chris. I’ll be adding back more of our readers wives in the coming weeks, but new submissions are always welcome! :)
