Franni Leigh in The Sea! (Original)


The final shot of Franni Leigh I have that was sent through by Terry Sparks. This one has Franni posing in the sea down at a favourite location of Terry’s, Pegwell Bay in Kent and although there is clear blue sky it still looks a little nippy in that sea!  Terry confirmed that this was a good location to use because as he says – ‘You were right about Franni Leigh being photographed at Pegwell Bay. That was a location I used a lot in the 1960’s and early 70’s. It was an area frequented by the Gay boys, this of course was when attitudes to homosexuality were very different to today, so it had the advantage that as soon as you produced a camera everyone promptly disappeared and you had the beach to yourself.’

So you could say Franni took her clothes off and all the men went running in the opposite direction, not a normal reaction to such a beauty :) Thanks to Terry for the anecdote and cracking shot of Franni.

Fanni’s Fanny (Original)

The second shot of Franni Leigh (not her real name!) by Terry Sparks taken in 1972 for Club International by Paul Raymond. This shot is very progressive for it’s time, as it shows that things were becoming more ‘open’ in the 1970’s.  Not only were shots becoming less subtle, they were also less censored with full on pubic hair shots that even showed the labia, such as above. I’m not saying shots like this weren’t taken before, but now they were being published with more on show and less imagination needed!

Thanks to Terry for this very colourful and open shot!

Franni Leigh Having a Feel! (Original)


Another different model this morning from Terry and this is Franni Leigh (not her real name!).  According to Terry she was originally a successful fashion model and this was one of the few times she did nude modelling. This shot and another I have were taken in 1972, with similar shots by Terry used in Club International by Paul Raymond.  Franni appeared across several pages of the 4th edition of Club International in April 1972, including a double page spread (boom boom!) as centrefold of the month. Unfortunately Terry only sent me the 3 shots he has remaining. The fact that this was the early 1970’s and a Paul Raymond publication means we start to see a lot more of Franni than normal, including pubic hair and more, which you will see in a further shot to come!

As I’d not come across Franni before, so I did a search and found that there is very little of her out there on the web, but she did appear on the cover and inside pages of Parade (14th & 21st October, 1972).  Those pictures show Franni posing on a beach and I believe those were also taken by Terry down at Pegwell Bay in Kent, as the third shot I have is of her posing in the sea at that location. So were they taken at the same time as those of Bobby Sparrow ?

Bobby Sparrow – Heart Shaped Heaven! (Original)

The final three fun filled shots of Bobby Sparrow taken by Terry Sparks at Pegwell Bay, Kent in 1972. These shots sure show Bobby as the model Terry remembers a ‘very lively girl and good fun to have a laugh with’ and we also get a great view of her pussy trimmed in the shape of a heart! The final two are fantastic shots, as any photographer will know trying to capture motion, let alone water splashes is hard at the best of times, but Terry nails it in these photo’s of Bobby. Not only is Bobby in focus, but so are the water splashes, which give the shots a real sense of movement and fun.

Brilliant shots and thanks to Terry for a great set of Bobby :)
