Velma Loftus in Chains!

A very full on pose of Velam Loftus by Harrison Marks from New Kamera No.1 (1969), not only wrapped in chains on the dungeon set, but showing of her very full bush! Thankfully by the late 1960’s we were getting to see these girls in all their full glory, due to a relaxing of the UK censorship laws.

Beverley Martin – Lakeside Lovely

Beverley Martin (Mary Morton) from the pages of Carnival Magazine (August 1965) posing topless beside a lake apparently!  It’s actually the square pond out the back/side of Ewhurst Manor from a different angle.  You can see Monique Devereux posing in front of it in an earlier post today.  Obviously a popular spot for a pose and I’ve even seen some of Barbara Halks and Monique posing in the pond!

Making Hay With Maxine Miller

A beautiful shot from Ed Alexander of Maxine Miller reclining in a barn full of hay in a short black negligee falling open to expose those lovely pert boobs. Taken from ‘Ed Alexander Photographs English Beauties’ (1964) by Whitestone Publications.

A Surreal Surrounding For Lorraine Burnett

Lorraine Burnett from a set of photographs that appear in the pages of Karama No.1.  Lorraine appears in this set totally nude posing forwards and from behind, but  what intrigues me more is the surreal background.  From what I can tell it seems to be square sheets of tin foil with a smaller squared pattern randomly stuck to the wall behind her!  Very surreal and distracting, but not that distracting from the main subject :)

Patsy French From New Kamera No.1

A very nice shot of Patsy French from New Kamera No.1 (1969), Harrison Marks attempt at revealing Kamera in the late 1960’s and 70’s.  Edition No.1 was late 1969 by which time censorship laws were loosening and pubic hair was becoming more acceptable in shots, as shown above. Patsy is another model that posed for GHM in the later part of the 60’s, but this is the first published image I’ve seen of her from him.

Thanks to Gavcrimson for the full copy of New Kamera No.1 with 62 pages including plenty of bush and some well known GHM models, more to come :)

Ed Alexander Photographs English Beauties

My latest purchase arrived this afternoon and one that I’ve been after for a while, but unfortunately it’s been going for silly prices on eBay, so I’ve always missed out.  By accident I found a copy for sale on Amazon yesterday at a very reasonable price, so despite my reservations I bought it, but for that price it had to be a very poor copy surely?  It arrived today, the day after I ordered it, it was very well securely sealed, then wrapped in brown paper and had a wonderful set of stamps attached (several Channel Tunnel ones if your interested).

Well to my surprise it’s a very good condition copy of the magazine, clean crisp pages, no discolouration and for a magazine 50 years old immaculate! So well played to the seller on Amazon for such a good buying experience, if only all sellers showed such commitment. 

Anyway onto the magazine! As the title says it’s full of English beauties photographed by Ed Alexander, including none other than Dawn Grayson on the cover (one of the reasons I wanted it!).  Published by Whitestone Publications in 1964 it’s a 112 page extravaganza of well known models, both clothed and nude, including Eve Eden, Sophia Dawn, Annette Johnson, Molly Peters and of course Dawn. The strange thing is apart from Annette Johnson, they are all using different or uncommon names, like Sophie Dorn, Kay Stern and Connie Fielding. A wonderful magazine and insight into glamour photography and lots of location shots inside and outside at Ewhurst Manor.

I’m off to scan a few pages to share with you all, then putting it up on eBay for an extortionate selling price (joking, it’s one of the few I may keep)
