A beautiful shot of a young June taken by Russell Gay and may well have appeared in one of his publications, but it’s unknown as to which and when. I’ve seen a similar shot of June in this outfit before, but that corset looks a damn tight fit to me, but I know that’s the point and gave a woman the curves she craved, but still looks like she can’t breathe! Love the outfit of black panties and stockings, plus the long hair and beauty spot. It also looks to have been taken at the same time as the glamour film ‘So Fur … So Good!‘, also by Russell Gay
Jean Spaul & Gaby Rougier (1958)
Jean Spaul (Sporle) and the model now identified as Gaby Rougier from Kamera No.17 (1958). Jean and Gaby appear multiple times together in Kamera No.17 and Kamera No.29, with Gaby also appearing solo in Kamera No.29. Thanks to Jeff for another good spot at identifying Gaby, who also appears in Fiesta Autumn Special 1957.
Further evidence below from Jeff to support his theory this is one such model named Gaby Rougier, as she is named in the article and has the beauty spot!
Gaby sent through by Phil D, doesn’t seem to be the same person or maybe just a few years older?
Dawn Grayson – The Magic in a Face
I originally published a version of this image under the title ‘Shattered Glass’ in June 2013 when I came across the image of Dawn and it was instantly a favourite. Well now I’ve found where it came from and have an original copy, as above. It was originally published in ‘Ed Alexander Photographs English Beauties’ on page 84, where he describes expressions of the face can change the mood of a photograph.
Incidentally I prefer this version to the first I found, as it looks better in black and white and Dawn looks good with a beauty spot!
Sophia Dawn – A Designing Young Lady!
Some more tri-colour goodness from the pages of Parade! This time it’s the alluring Sophia Dawn in various stages of undress without actually getting undressed. This double paged spread was from Parade No.1201 (15th December, 1962) and my favourite shot must be the one directly above, where she nearly got all her kit off!
There was something about the sheer elegance of Sophia Dawn that just does it for me. The lips, eyes and the beauty spot and that’s before getting any further than her face!
Another original scan of mine!
