Annette Johnson – The Coal Miners Daughter

I’ve been very remiss with publishing some models and Annette Johnson is one of them, so I’ll set things straight with this lovely shot of Miss Johnson.

Annette became one of GHM’s regular models and was a coal miner’s daughter from Lancashire. Her career started very similar to many models in 1960’s when she started posing with local camera clubs and was posing by age 16 upstairs for the owner of the local shoe store in which she was working,  her blond hair was real and so was everything else..

By 1970/71 she had apparently finished nude work for good, a short career compared to others. She was to reappear in the 1980’s working for Knave magazine as an agony aunt and posing with a more rounded and mature figure and unafraid to show more of herself than in the past.


She worked professionally under at least three other names, including Annette Scotson, Karen Fraser and Annette Bristow to name a few.  A lovely lady by all accounts and one that loved her pets, both cats and dogs.

Beautiful Side Profile of Unknown Blonde

I love this image! It comes from Kamera No.40 and this stunning blonde appears on pages 13 and 28, along with the intro page below.

Again she looks familiar, but can’t put a name to her and not going to try this time!  Does anyone recognise her?  Kamera No.40 was published in 1962 if that helps and I’ve looked on the official GHM website model data to no avail.

I’ll add it to the unknown models page for reference.
