Dedicated to the published work of Harrison Marks & other prominent photographers of the 1950's, 60's and early 70's. Along with popular glamour models such as June Palmer, Pamela Green, Dawn Grayson and others
From a set that just keeps giving, the stunning Dawn Grayson in black bra and panties with matching heels and tan suspenders. Sat with her legs up, showing off the heels, she looks relaxed and gorgeous as ever. This is the 6th shot from this set and only a few left to go, which is a shame as I love this set.
Continuing from my collection of Cover Girl. The front and rear cover of Cover Girl No.24 from 1968. I love the concept of a front view on the main cover and a rearview on the back. I think I prefer the rearview of this edition, as you get a great view of the model’s great arse as she leans over a very retro style chair.
A nice uncensored view on the front cover to that no doubt caught the eye of potential European buyers.
Some will say that this type of magazine and post isn’t for them, which I totally get. For me, it’s about capturing and revisiting a magazine that’s disappearing fast in today’s world. These magazines are over 50 years old now, and printed versions are becoming rare. Take into account that these type of magazines are also disappearing because they are seen as not acceptable by certain groups in society today. It makes it even more important to capture and celebrate these magazines, the models in all their fabulous glory and the photographers that pushed the boundaries back in the 1960s. Sometimes it just seems like we are going backwards in our views and everything needs to be censored in case it offends one group or another!
I say just enjoy it for what it is in your mind and if not just move along :)
Another cheeky little shot of June Simpson from an original 35 mm Pamar colour slide. Another Harrison Marks shot from this studio set of June, but this has great use of shadows to give June’s back and bottom great shape and contrast. What a great view of her arse and figure. :)
A different duo of girls from a scan of a recent set of magazines. This comes from Modern Girls No.5 and features two contrasting beauties by Serge Jacques. The ebony beauty is Nicole Isimat, who also appeared in Cover Girl No.12.
No idea who the blonde is, but both appear throughout the magazine in various poses and stages of undress, as you can imagine.
Another colourful shot of the Erica flashing her big tits for us by Harrison Marks. A cracking quality shot from an original Pamar 35 mm slide in vibrant colours, which show off Erica’s magnificent tits to good effect. Shot on the loft set, I also love the sheer blue blouse she is pulling open to expose herself and the black fishnet stockings. :)
A perfect shot, and thanks as always to Kevin for allowing me to share. Other shots of Erica on the loft set can be seen here.
The fabulous figure of Terry Graham as she poses kneeling on a sheepskin rug in front of a fireplace. This comes from a set of original negatives, which I now have 12 images from, and those I’ve published so far from the set can be seen here. This is a stunning shot and the quality of it is so good it could have been taken today rather than over 50 years ago!
The delectable Dawn Grayson, posing in the studio wearing her pink sheer négligée again. It’s the same pink négligée as in these shots, so it does raise the question if it was her own outfit or just used by the same photographer at different times? The other shots were 35 mm colour slides taken outdoors, whereas this shot is a medium format negative in the studio, but that’s not to say they weren’t taken at the same time though.
Either way, I do like the sheerness of the négligée and how we clearly see Dawn’s small pert tits through it :)

I’ve posted several individual shots of the three models Marianne Morris, Venetia Day and Dinah Challen by Terry Sparks on Rhodes, but very few of them all together. So, it’s very nice to find this article in Girl Illustrated Vol.5 No.1 (1971) with them all. They have Marianne down as Viki Pascal, which I knew she modelled as, but Dinah as Linda Rome is a new name to me.
Vanda Hudson taken by Harrison Marks from a set of Pamar Colour Slides (1959), of which this is a scan of one of the slide. Nothing risqué about this shot, other than a flash of cleavage through the opening of her white outfit, plus a hint of nipple through the material. It’s still a very elegant shot of Vanda in the studio with the vivid red background.
Neva in the doorway of the Lantern Cottage set from the July page of the 1968 Kamera Calendar. A stunning dusky woman from Trinidad not blessed with the largest of chests and a strategically placed hand covering below, which is a real shame as she had the most fantastic thick lush bush on her! I suppose full-frontal shots were a bit risqué for the calendars back then, even though most ended up on the walls of workshops etc.
