Ann Austin: The Perfect Camera Model!


Ann Austin on the cover of Camera Model Guide No.4 from the 1950s, and a fine figure it is! Published monthly by Arnold Book Co. Ltd in London, this edition appears to have been published in 1958 and was designed to assist the student of art photography. It featured shots from many of the established photographers of the time, including Eva Grant, Russell Gay, Stanley Long and Roger Davis, who also took the cover photo of Ann. A beautifully crafted magazine, but another under the guise of studying nude art, when really we all know it was just an excuse to legally published nudes. :)

Pamela Green: Simply Red!


An early vintage shot of the great Pamela Green by Harrison Marks. Taken in 1958 this shot appeared as part of a 35 mm Pamar slide set featuring Pam and others. A great shot of Pam as a redhead and wearing a cheeky open red leotard, with just a hint of nipple showing. :)

Another Brush with Pat Davis


Another shot of Pat Davis by Harrison Marks posing on the loft set as she sits on a crate with an artist’s paint brush! This shot first appeared in Kamera No.23 P32 (1959), but this is from the original medium format negative in my collection.

A beautiful shot of Pat as she toys with that brush, and such a fabulous view of her figure. A glimpse of one of the first Kamera calendars in the background featuring Pamela Green as well.

Perfectly Posed Pat!


Pat Davis by Harrison Marks posing on the loft set as she sits on a crate surrounded by various props!  A fabulous pose from Pat sat on the edge of that crate with her arms up, which allows us to see all of her figure and those rather nice tits! Another classic early shot from GHM. :)

Lavinia Grant By Harrison Marks (1958)

 Lavinia Grant from Kamera No.13 (1958). As far as I know, Lavinia only appeared six times in Kamera for Harrison Marks in the late 1950s, one in this issue, three in No.14 and two in No.21. I’m not sure if she ever modelled or appeared for him in any other publication.

A very sultry looking model showing off a cracking figure, with small pert tits and great bum and loving the dimples.

Diane Webber: A Soapy Outlook!

 An original image of Diane Webber (Marguerite Empey) taking a soapy bath in what looks like a giant wok!  I’m a big fan of Diane from her early work and later as a naturalist, and there is a tenuous link to her and this site. In 1959 Kamera Publications published a book dedicated to Diane called ‘The Diane Weber Album’, unfortunately the images weren’t taken by Harrison Marks but an import for the US. Any excuse to publish this great unseen shot, and thanks to Kevin for sharing it with me.

An Oiled Erica & The Phonograph (1959)

 
I know I may sound like a broken record (boom boom!), but I just love seeing Erica’s body, especially covered in oil! This slicked up shot of a glistening Erica posing with a phonograph on the loft set comes from Kamera No.20 (1959)

June Russell: All Decked Out!


A scan of one of my own growing collection of negatives, this time June Russell posing sat in a coloured striped deckchair! I love this shot and can just imagine coming across June sat on the beach like this, well maybe not, but one can imagine.

Jennifer Garland: Staged Beauty


Jennifer Garland posing on the backstage set by Harrison Marks from a restored 35 mm colour Pamar slide. I do love a Redhead and Jennifer is no exception with her slender figure and always pert pink nipples. Love the stage setting in this shot and the use of the coloured lights, especially the red lighting that highlights Jennifer’s body.
