Triangle Starring June Palmer (Video)

Time for another never before seen June Palmer video, this time starring an older June in a video entitled ‘Triangle’.  

The basic story of the this video is a simple one … June is part of an orchestra, but has the unfortunate task of playing the ‘Triangle’, which is limited and boring.  As such she starts to daydream and fall asleep and dreams of sheep jumping through the triangle, followed by her dressed as little bo-peep.  What follows is a chase between her as little bo-peep and little boy blue, where along the way various parts of her clothing fall off (what a surprise!)

Now for some facts:

  • The film was shot by our very own John W at June and Arthur Howells house in South London in the summer of 1978.
  • The film was a competition entry by a federation of film clubs of which John was a member of one. The entry criteria was that the film had to have the title ‘Triangle’.
  • Not only is the film shot by John, but he stars in it along side June in the roles of the symbol player and ‘Little Boy Blue’!
  • The image on June’s wikipedia page (below) is a still taken from this very video.

A simple film, but one that gives you a glimpse of June later in her life through video rather than still images. Finally, it goes without saying that a huge thanks must go to John for allowing me to share this unseen video of June (and himself!)

Enjoy!

June Palmer & The Old Barn Wall! (Original)

June posing nude outdoors and propping up an old barn wall!  I’d go with saying this was somewhere warm looking at the sky and location, maybe on holiday again somewhere and taken by Arthur Howell.  Originally from a 120 film negative, but edited and tidied up to remove the odd scratch.



Note: All images, original or otherwise have been carefully edited and restored where required and a lot of effort has gone into this and may be subject to this copyright notice.  Please feel free to share, but kindly link back to this original if sharing elsewhere, Many Thanks! – Wonder

Rachel Wells & The White Silk Dress (Original)

June Palmer as Rachel Wells (short dark wig) in a long white silk dress, taken in a hotel room on holiday, possibly Corsica again!  This comes from a set of 6 images and on looking, most of the images of JP as Rachel Wells seem to be on location somewhere warm or on holiday and taken on 120 film format by Arthur Howell.

Diving With June Palmer (Original)

I’ve been scouring the archive’s for inspiration for my 500th post, but nothing jumped out until I saw these again.  I decided the post should be JP related, but wanted something different, so when I saw these it was decided!

June Palmer in the late 1960’s on holiday diving!  One with her in scuba gear preparing to dive and then two of her doing some nude snorkeling (my favourites!)  Apart from her great bum, the two underwater shots are fantastic and love the bubbles surrounding her on the last shot.  I’ve done very little to these shots apart from some minor colour adjustments and removing the odd blemish, but the quality on the underwater shots was amazing!

These were probably taken by Arthur Howell on holiday and again the best guess is Corsica as it seems to be a favourite holiday location.

So this was my 500th post since March when I started this blog, Wow! Thanks must go to all the contributors who have helped with the quality of this blog and the fantastic original photo’s that have been sent to me, including John W who provided the 3 images above and allowing me to share them!

Brides in the Bath – Part 2 (Video)

So as promised part 2 of the full version of ‘Brides in the Bath’.
This film was based loosely around the true life story of serial killer and bigamist George Joseph Smith.  I won’t bore you with the details, but if your interested in the real story there is a link here
The story behind this film can be found over on part 1

Highlights of this part, the can-can girls including Jayne Tracey and of course George’s third wife in the shape of June Palmer and another bath scene!

 Actresses in this part are listed below, again some I cannot identify, so let me know if you spot any?

George (?)

Can-Can Girl No.1 (?)

Can-Can Girl No.2 (Jayne Tracey)

Can-Can Girl No.3 (?)

Mistress (Same as Can-Can Girl No.3?)

Wife No.3 (June Palmer)


For those wanting to skip through things Jayne Tracey starts at 2:30 minutes and June Palmer at 14 minutes

So I leave you to enjoy part 2 of ‘Brides in the Bath’, which completes this never before seen video from Arthur Howell and featuring June Palmer.

 Next… Another never before seen June Palmer video called ‘Triangle’ featuring June as Little Bo-Peep, an image of which can be seen on her Wikipedia page … Here

 P.S. If the video fails at any point, do let me know :)

June Palmer – Original 'Brides in the Bath' 16mm Film Scan

A scan of an original piece of the colour 16mm film ‘Calamity June’. 

This was from a reel of pieces of offcuts and out-takes from Arthur Howell, provided to a contact of mine John.  John pulled together the pieces and produced the version of ‘Brides in the Bath’ currently showing on this site.
This piece of negative is towards the end of the film where George is trying to kill off his third wife (June Palmer), but she fights back!

There's That Rug Again June!

Another image from a 120 film negative of June posing on a sheepskin rug (again!) in front of some blinds wearing a short silver wig.  Apparently she went under the alias of ‘Candy’ when wearing a short silver wig, but most people only know of her alias Joanna Kent, so images tend to get mixed up!  Joanna used to have a long strawberry blond wig in most shots.
