June Simpson posing on a leopardskin rug from Photographic Rhythm No.1. Another great shot from Lawrence Venn of June, but it again looks cut out and pasted on a white background!
June Simpson – What's New Pussycat!
A Vintage Year for Lorraine Burnett!
Lorraine Burnett on the front cover and inside pages of Monsieur No.10 (Late 1950’s) posing in a black negligee and nude with a backdrop of wine bottles in a rack. What a nice rack it is!
Margaret Warhurst – A Classic 1950's Glamour Pose
A restored 35mm slide featuring a young Margaret Warhurst, scanned and restore from a Walton Glamour slide from the late 1950’s. A simple, but mesmerizing pose of Margaret on a chaise lounge!
An Impressive Bush From Carla!
These 2 shots are from restored 35mm slides, that were again originally colour but so badly faded I converted them to black and white. Both shots are of a model named ‘Carla’ on the slides, but I have no doubt that this is also Pat Ebden showing us a lot more than usually seen with her! A sneak peak of her in the top shot, then full on bush in the bottom shot although a little blurry!
To validate my reasoning that it is Pat Ebden, look at this shot of Pat & Tina Madison, same bed but different background and looking at Pat I would say taken at roughly the same time? I prefer the top shot and pose, just showing us a glimpse of something we shouldn’t see :)
Eve Eden – It's All in the Eyes!
Right! before anyone moans about the bad editing, other than scanning and removing some scratches I’ve not touched these images of Eve Eden! These images are all from Photographic Rhythm No.1 by Lawrence Venn and raise all sorts of questions. Like why were the images not only retouched in the nether regions, but also the eyes! If you look closely the eyes on these and most of the other pages in this magazine look drawn on and not very well! It also looks as if Eve herself has been cut out and pasted onto a white or black background, again very badly. The top images is the best, but they get progressively worse as you go down the page. Which raises the question … why? I know the main attraction of Ms Eden wasn’t her eyes, but still I can’t stop staring at them, when really my attention should be focussed on her wonderful figure, especially the second image :)
Ann Austin by Russell Gay
Wow! Need I same more but Ann Austin in all her big boobed glory by Russell Gay and published in Model No.14. An Ideal candidate for Oldiznewagain :)
Virginia Green in Full Length Colour!
Virginia Green in full colour from the centre pages of Model No.14 by Russell Gay. This was a tri-fold spread across 3 pages carefully stitched together for your viewing pleasure. What an absolutely fantastic curvy figure Virginia had and on view here, apart from the retouching of the nether regions a perfect shot!
Pamela Green in Colour (Coloured)
Another cheating post with two more images coloured by Oldiznewagain, this time Pamela Green with both images from the late 1950’s. One has her with dark hair and the other with long blonde hair, but a wig and not the blonde hair we are so familiar seeing her with in the 1960’s. Coloured version followed by the original :)
Kamera on Location (1957)
Jane Matthews
Two restored 35 mm slides of Jane Matthews from the early 1960s. The originals were colour but the slides had degraded so much all that was left was the magenta colour and despite best efforts no other colour could be restored, so decided to convert them to black and white. At a guess I’d say these were late 1950s or early 1960s and taken by Bob Robson.
Lorraine Burnett in Colour (Coloured)
I can’t keep up with the quantity and quality of the coloured images at which Oldiznewagain is churning them out, so cheating and taking the easy option and adding a few in one post to try and catch up!
Two shots of Lorraine Burnett coloured from two of my original posts, with the original after each coloured version.
Kamera Special No.1 (1957)
Kamera on Location (1958)
Both very good coloured versions of the originals, but my favourite is the top one as the colours look more realistic. It’s probably easier to colour a person and the skin tones than an outdoor location, as the sand, rocks and grass in the second look slightly unnatural. I also note that by colouring the images Oldiznewagain loses some of the grain and texture from the original black and white versions, giving the coloured versions a smoother feel. Again, not a criticism, rather an observation, as I know I couldn’t do anywhere as near a good a job as these and leave that to Old! Restore yes I can do that, colour not on your life!
