It’s always good too make new contacts with similar interests, but then who doesn’t like looking at naked women from the past? So it was great to receive contact from John at Oxxbridge Galleries in New York. John is the owner of a New York City based gallery that specializes in nude photography and presently they have a project under way where they are trying to identify a large number of vintage nude model photos from the 1950’s-1960’s. They use to have someone who did this for them, but he is getting on in his years and his health no longer allows him to do this. So they contacted me via the site, as long time admirers and wondered if I knew of anyone who would be interested in such a position. I said I would post the details of the position (below) to see if anyone that uses my site would be interested.

John also runs a large eBay site, selling a large selection of Vintage erotica, which you can find a link to here, but it is based on eBay.com, so you may not get to see all the great images, as they seem to block some adult content if you access the site outside of the US!

Not only that, but John sent me some great vintage images that I can share on the site as well, such as the one above. Not my normal subject area, but who could resist an unknown model with a fantastic body and I just love the padded fireplace in the background! I have others from John to share and look forward to seeing more over time, but it’s always good to make new contacts with shared interests, so thanks John for the images and making contact :)

John’s advert:

NYC art gallery has a part time position available for someone who is knowledgeable about vintage  nude female models from 1950’s-1960’s. We are seeking someone to help us identify photographs of these women. The position is for pay and is ongoing as we regularly get new photographs. The successful applicant would work remotely from home identifying digital images we sent them.

An upfront image of 1960’s model Paula King giving us an eye watering view of her plumped up cleavage from the 1960’s Glamour book. That blouse is only just keeping them in!

Maria Frost – Always a Good Girl!


Until last week I think I only had one image of Maria Frost and then Terry sent me one of his originals (coming soon!), closely followed by me finding the above shot. This shot again appears on P267 of the ‘1950’s Glamour Book’ which seems to be predominately work by Russell Gay, so this could be a Terry shot as well? Having now dug around for other shots of Maria, two things stand out. One, she likes her wigs, as she almost always seems to be wearing one in the shots I’ve seen and two, she wears the chain and cross in many as well, so obviously a good little church going girl!  Although if you manage to see her appearance in the 1970 Harrison Marks film ‘A Hit For Two Miss’s’ appearing with Angela Duncan, she doesn’t look so innocent to me! She also appears in a second GHM film, also in 1970 called ‘Scouts Honour’

Audrey’s Hallway Antics!


A little uncensored set of Audrey Judson (Kim Courtenay) posing in the hallway at Ewhurst Manor. I like this set because I’ve not come across many shots of Audrey to publish, it’s based at Ewhurst, and finally she has a great body and pussy on her, so why not! The images are not up to the usual standard as they are from small scans I found, but restored them the best I could. I would love to get better versions of these and know if there were any more? Still good enough to share though, and the first three are my favourites!

June in Jail! (1964)

Well not actually in jail, but photographed on the dungeon set by Harrison Marks and another shot featured in the Kamera Special ‘The Fabulous June Palmer’ (1964). I’ve already published two colour images of June on the dungeon set, from original negatives I own, with at least a further two also appearing the same Kamera Special.

Eve Eden – Better As a Blonde? (Original)

Eve Eden as a blonde! I actually quite like Eve as a blonde, although she was only blonde for a very short period before reverting back to her more natural look as a brunette. This shot was taken by Ed Alexander and comes from a complete set of 35mm negatives owned by Kevin, who has kindly sent over several images, including this one. The shots show Eve in an open blouse and white panties posing in what seems to be an abandoned/derelict building with corrugated roof, but who cares about the location when we have Eve looking like this!

Annette Johnson – A Right Fruity One! (1964)

OK, I’ll openly admit that Annette Johnson isn’t one of my favourite models, but don’t ask me to explain why because I can’t really put a finger on why I don’t like her, I just don’t compared to others. Saying that the shots of her taken by Harrison Marks are some of the better ones I’ve seen of her, plus those by Ed Alexander and this shot is a good example. Taken by Harrison Marks outside Ewhurst Manor, this is one of four shots of her that appear in the hardback book ‘She Walks in Beauty’ (1964). All four shots are located in the grounds of Ewhurst, which is unusual in that nearly almost all of the photo’s in SWiB are taken on location down in Devon, apart from a small sub-set based at Ewhurst.

This shot is outside the front of Ewhurst, as you can see the driveway, but what is more bizarre about the shot, other than Annette’s pose, is the bowl of fruit on the ground in front of her! What’s that all about? It also looks like the retouchers had a field day hiding her nether region and did a poor job! Despite all of the above Annette doesn’t look too bad in the shot :)

Erica – Kamera No.36 Cover (1960)


The cover of Kamera No.36 (1960) featuring one of my big busted favourites, Erica. This comes from a scan of my own copy from my growing collection of Kamera magazines. It needed very little doing to it, apart from a tweak to the colours, as this copy is in near perfect condition for its age, with the cover only slightly faded.
