I don’t post many normal posts, but when I do they are absolute crackers! This is one of those shots and of non other than Marilyn Monroe, which comes from a scan of a 35mm latent slide from Kevin. I’ve been kindly allowed to post this here as it’s too good not to share, but sorry about the watermark as if we didn’t protect it in some way it would end up being copied and sold as prints by others on eBay! Yes, it happens more than you think to us, so hence the watermarks and only being shared here and nowhere else.

It’s still a stunningly beautiful shot of Marilyn in this revealing lace top dress and was taken by Bruno Bernard in 1959.

June Simpson – A Cheeky Little Rear View!


A cheeky little shot of June Simpson from an original 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 view of her arse and one of my favourite sets of June, but wait till you see the set of her posing nude in a paddling pool!

Hazel’s Hanging Fruits!


A colour shot of Hazel Taylor (Ann Dixon) with the toga like dress and grapes hanging down.  Hazel looking rather glam with her hair up from the 1950’s Glamour Book that includes a range of images from Russell Gay publications, so one assumes this was by Russell gay and the second shot I’ve published from this set of Hazel, the first one posted here.

Y is for Yamille (Xmas Calendar)

This was a difficult letter to cover for the calendar, but there were a few options, but in the end I went for the centre pages of Kamera No.48 (1962) featuring Yamille. So Phil was correct with Yamille, but I also had a Nicole Yearner shot ready, but went with Yamille in the end.

Finally, this isn’t the hardest letter to do, anyone got suggestions for the letter i?

June Palmer – Colourful Cushions (Original)

The second shot from a set of six of June posing at Scotlee Studio’s on a set of ‘colourful cushions‘. Scanned and restored from my own 35mm slides, the colours in this shot, both from the background and cushions really work well against June’s naked body as she lies on the cushions. We also get to see a familiar prop used in other shots of June and other models at Scotlee, the bamboo room divider :)

Penny Winters – Kamera Calendar, June 1968


Penny Winters propping up a tree from the June page of the 1968 Kamera Calendar. Probably a shot that was originally taken of Penny down in Cornwall as part of the Kamera on Location 66 set, as the river in the background seems similar to other shots from that set. Nice strategically placed knee and shadow. :)

Making Hay With Margaret Warhurst


I original posted a version of this image here back in 2013 and it was an early attempt at restoring a downloaded copy of the image. Well I now have a better copy of the original that shows just how bad my first attempts at restoring images were! This comes from a direct scan of the Pamar slide mass produced for the market by Harrison Marks back in the late 1950’s and although still a copy (Interneg) of the original negative, the quality and colour is far superior to my original effort! The hay actually looks the right colour and until seeing this shot I didn’t realize Margaret had a blue headband in her hair! The slide also shows that it should be viewed this way, rather than my first version.

Terry Graham – Legs Firmly Closed!


A superb colour shot of Terry Graham from an original Harrison Marks negative, taken in the bedroom of one of his flat’s as the brass bedstead is very familiar! Terry looks as gorgeous as ever in this pose and no need to retouch this shot as her legs are firmly crossed to hide anything from peeking out, but being shaven obviously helps!
