Dedicated to the published work of Harrison Marks & other prominent photographers of the 1950's, 60's and early 70's. Along with popular glamour models such as June Palmer, Pamela Green, Dawn Grayson and others
Another original shot of June Palmer by Stefan Glass, and another taken in the studio lies on her side elbow under her chin propped up by what looks like three sofa cushions. Once again a truly elegant nude pose from June, with creased photographic background again!
Paula Page on the loft set from Kamera Special No.4 P53 (1964) and looking at this shot it seems to comes from the same set of images that also appear in Kamera No.30, where Paula also appears on the cover.
Clyda is a favourite model/porn actress from the 1970s and has a genuine reason for being on the pages of this blog. Israeli born Clyda real name Vietta Taff, was apparently discovered in the early seventies by Harrison Marks, although I’ve found no proof he discovered her! He used her both as a glamour model in his photography and as an actress in his glamour films, which at the time were being filmed in both hard and soft core versions.
Some films Marks made with Rosen include Autograph Hunter, in which Clyda plays a groupie who breaks into the home of rock star Randy Tool. Dolly Mixture, which she made in 1972/73 under the name Vietta Manning. Probably the most famous of the Marks/Rosen 8 mm films was Die Lollos (Unaccustomed As I Am) in which Clyda attempts to smuggle pornography through British customs. Die Lollos was also filmed in a black and white soft core version called Unaccustomed as I Am, still starring Clyda, but with several actors and some subtle changes to the story. In the softcore version, Clyda is stopped and strip searched by a male customs officer, but in the hardcore version the customs officer is female, who gives Clyda a thorough strip search and examination!
Clyda, who was renowned for her big tits and very hairy pussy, continued performing into the 1990s, starring in various porn films under the name Vietta Manning. Nothing was left to the imagination with Clyda especially in her later photography and films. I prefer her earlier Marks work, of which I have copies of both version of Die Lollos, along with a copy of Autograph Hunter, which I will try to post at some point if there is a demand.
For now, a couple of tame early photos of Clyda showing off the assets she became famous for :)
A cheeky little shot of Dawn Grayson posing in a very short sheer pink négligée that leaves little to the imagination! Taken outdoors at the same location as this original shot of Dawn and Gloria Lomax. It comes from a scan of an original 35 mm Kodak slide from my own Dawn collection and is only one of two shots I have from this set.
A scan of the cover of Kamera No.51 (1963) featuring a very colourful shot of Vivienne Warren. A simple shot of Vivienne posing nude on the sheepskin rug with a very pink background as a perfect contrast.

A scan of an original negative of Molly Peters by Harrison Marks. Similar shots of her in different poses taken on the same set and background appear in Kamera No.51, which would put the shot at about 1963. I haven’t posted many of Molly and at present this is the only negative I own of her, but her figure and nicely rounded pert tits in this shot are wonderful. I love the curve and shape of her hips and bum in this shot too.
Note: This is an original image from my own negative and subject to this copyright notice
I original posted a version of this image here back in 2013 and it was an early attempt at restoring a downloaded copy of the image. Well I now have a better copy of the original that shows just how bad my first attempts at restoring images were! This comes from a direct scan of the Pamar slide mass produced for the market by Harrison Marks back in the late 1950’s and although still a copy (Interneg) of the original negative, the quality and colour is far superior to my original effort! The hay actually looks the right colour and until seeing this shot I didn’t realize Margaret had a blue headband in her hair! The slide also shows that it should be viewed this way, rather than my first version.

Two more shots of June from this set posing nude on what looks to be a blanket with a windbreak or similar as a background, both nude and with just black panties.
A superb colour shot of Terry Graham from an original Harrison Marks negative, taken in the bedroom of one of his flat’s as the brass bedstead is very familiar! Terry looks as gorgeous as ever in this pose and no need to retouch this shot as her legs are firmly crossed to hide anything from peeking out, but being shaven obviously helps!

It’s been a while since I’ve posted some original images of June taken by Itsgardin and as luck would have it he’s just posted two great new shots of her. Posing in front of a mirror, these shots were taken by Itsgardin in 1987 at Arthur Howell’s home and are fabulous. Not only do we get see see the maturing, but still fabulous body of June, but we see it in duplicate in the reflection.
As a young girl June kept herself clean shaven for all of her professional glamour work, which somehow seemed right when you see the early uncensored shots of her. As she matured and did less professional work and more private work she let things grow, giving her a magnificent pussy to see in shots like this. Again, as she got older it just seems right that she had a more natural look, which I do prefer.
Thanks as always to Itsgardin for these new images of June :)
