A colour version similar to this shot of Margaret Nolan posing amongst the sand dunes. Restored, but still with a slight tinge of pink in the sand, a different shot of Margaret laying on the sand by Harrison Marks.

Another black and white 35mm negative of June that was probably produced as a colour negative as well, of June posing in the waves. This comes from the set of June wearing a black striped bikini posing on a beach in the UK somewhere, which I’ve published several colour shots before here.
Connie Fielding, dipping her toes in the sea wearing a stunning bikini that’s coming off at the shoulders! It’s actually Eve Eden or Rosa Domaille, but she went under the name Connie Fielding during this period of her career, when most of the shots of her were taken by Ed Alexander. No rude Rosa in these shots’ as they are actually quite tame compared to the many other shots we’ve seen of her under her various names!
A very sandy view of Rita (Pamela Green) from Kamera on Location P38 (1958) It looks a bit like a sand bikini, the way the sand has stopped in a perfect line across her boobs, not that I’m complaining :)
The final one for today and I’ve left the best to last (in my opinion), with a stunning shot of Leonarda Colombo by Terry Sparks.
After my last shot from Terry, he contacted me again with some more new shots, including this one and some more great little stories attached. Terry mentioned that the trip to Rhodes was financially quite lucrative and so the following year he took another three girls to Crete for a week in May, 1972. It was a disaster due to the fact that it rained all day and every day until the day before they were due to fly back. So they worked like crazy on that final day and managed to get a few decent shots, including the one above. The girls were Jeanette Marsden, Leonarda Colombo and Pippa Pascale and I’ll reveal more about those girls later, as I have shots of them all.
I’ve never come across Leonarda before, if that is indeed her real name, but what a stunning shot Terry managed to capture of her, her body and let’s not forget that magnificent bush on display! I may be biased here, but Terry’s work always manages to amaze me, from the way he gets the model to pose, looking so natural in doing so, to the clarity of the shots, under the circumstances :) I have a growing collection of shots from Terry, which I’m proud to show off on this site and always enjoy the next set of shots that thankfully come my way and long may that continue. You also forget looking at these shots that they are over 40 years old and it’s no wonder that the likes of Russell Gay and others were more than happy to publish Terry’s work whenever they could. Saying that I’m sure there must be out-takes for shots with the models I haven’t seen, as Terry only sends through the best shots, but who wouldn’t :)
Thanks as always to Terry for another stunner!
The final two shots I have of Marianne Morris posing on a beach in Rhodes taken by Terry Sparks, plus two German magazine articles featuring the Rhodes 3, again obviously taken by Terry. Marianne looks fantastic in the two original images from Terry and although I love the shot of her running her tongue over her lips, I think I prefer the second shot. I just love the pose of her laying back on the wet sand, with the reflection of her body showing in the wet ripples of the sand. A perfectly composed shot from Terry and a great additional prop of the large necklace!
The two magazine articles show all three of the Rhodes models, Marianne Morris, Venetia Day and Dinah Challen posing in the sea and on the rocks and love the colour shot of all three of them. Dinah in those long black boots and blue panties looks fantastic and a shame I’ve n ot got any of those from Terry :)
Thanks as always to Terry for sharing his original images with me and still a few more Venetia Day shots to go before I run out!
Another of my Margaret Nolan posts expertly coloured by Oldiznewagain and a favourite from the shots of her that appeared in ‘She Walks in Beauty’ shot in 1964. The original black and white version can be seen here.
A stunning shot of Nancy Roberts posing on a beach with only a sun hat and beach towel for shade. It comes from a photographic glass plate and was taken in September 1959 at the beach near Sheplegh Court, Devon. What a body on view, including a peak of her uncensored bits.
I’ve also realized that this set of shots of Nancy come from the Michael Winner film ‘Some Like It Cool’ (1962) and although she is never credited in the film, Nancy appears on several posters and lobby cards advertising the film. The shots in the posters seem to be at this location and in similar positions.
A stunning shot of Nancy Roberts posing on a beach with only a sun hat for shade. It comes from a photographic glass plate and was taken in September 1959 at the beach near Sheplegh Court, Devon, and the accompanying notes put Nancy at 20 years old in the shot.
What a body, what a smile, and thankfully I have several others of Nancy at the beach to share along with this. :)
Some more shots of Marianne Morris (modelling as Vicki Pascale) who has already appeared on this site before with two other models. Terry took Marianne and the other two models to Rhodes in the May of 1971 and took the above shots of her posing in the sea. The top shot comes direct from Terry’s collection, hence the better quality, but on my Internet trawls I also found the two page colour shots of Marianne. At least one of the images was obviously taken by Terry in Rhodes and these images were published in a German magazine called Das Neue Sunny Girl Vol.5 No.3. I’ve also found several other images of the 3 models posing for Terry in Rhodes that appear in other German publications, so will post those separately.
Finally Terry has now sent me several of his own shots of the black girl that appears in the ‘Rhodes 3‘ shot, who was a model named Venetia Day, but more of her to come later as well :)
