A top-heavy shot of Harrison Marks model Erica, restored from a scan of a print sent over by John from Oxxbridge Galleries. A simple but effective shot showing her greatest assets!
June Palmer – A Sheer Front View! (Original)
Catching up on my June images and the third shot from the restored strip of 35mm negatives of June posing in sheer panties, this time another front view. I actually think having the panties on adds to the shot, plus June’s perfect hair offset by the earrings, make it all work for me, but think I’ve said that before :)

S is for Sissi! (Xmas Calendar)
And the final letter for the 2015 Christmas Calendar goes to Sissi Mississippi and an original shot from one of my own negatives. Sissi looks stunning in this pose, especially her hair and dark eyeliner around her eyes, and that’s even before we look at her body! Although the shadow from her thumb does make the shape of her pubic hair look rather odd!
Well that’s it for this year’s Christmas calendar and I hope it’s kept you entertained on the run up to the festivities? All that’s left is to again wish everyone a Merry Christmas and that things will slow down after today as I take a break and enjoy the holidays myself. There may be some more posts, but not as regularly as normal. Normal service will resume in the New Year.
Thelma a Deceiving Look!
Another restored print from the Oxxbridge collection, but this time a Harrison Marks shot of Thelma laying on the leopardskin rug! This shot appears to have been taken in the late 1950s, as similar shots with the same rug appear in both Kamera No.4 (1957) and Kamera No.11 (1958), the latter featuring Thelma in colour on the cover and centre pages. Shots that appeared in Kamera and some that weren’t were also mass printed and sold as individual prints and postcards and sold (probably under the counter in plain brown paper bags!) to the discerning collector.
Nancy Roberts – Naked & Happy! (Original)
I’m currently going through a huge collection of early vintage glamour images and helping Oxxbridge Galleries to identify the models in them. As part of that deal they are kindly providing high resolution scans of some of the prints I’m interested in to share on this site. One small set of 8 images I helped identify was that of Nancy Roberts and the above shot is restored from one of those prints. In most of the shots Nancy is posing naked with a big smile of her face, a combination you don’t often see (Well the big smile anyway!), but regardless of the smile Nancy looks as stunning as ever and in this set she also seems to be wearing a huge set of bangles.
I also had contact from a new member today who remembers seeing Nancy in magazines and on TV back in his youth and wondered if I had any images of her? I sure do as you can see :)
A Cheeky One From Terry Peters
A cheeky rearview shot of Terry Peters kneeling on a rug in front of the fireplace at Ewhurst Manor. I just loved the composition of the shot with the way she was kneeling and looking over her shoulder. Kneel as she is with her bum resting on her heels gives it such a great shape and view I couldn’t resist. You will also notice as this is straight from the negative it’s not been retouched for publication, and we get to see more between her open legs than we would normally!
June Palmer – Cardigan, Leggings & Tree! (Original)
Another original shot of a young June Palmer posing in spotted leggings and black cardigan, as she poses against a tree. This is the start of another mini set of 12 images of June and the Tree from a 35mm film strip sent over by John. They aren’t as good quality as some of the larger format negatives, but with a little tweaking and scratch removal they come up pretty well, like this shot. This shot is about as risky as the shots I’ve got go, with one boob and nipple exposed. I’m sure there must be further films out there where she removes more, but maybe not?

Teresa Seymour (1950’s)
A rare shot from a restored 10 by 8 print of Teresa Seymour, whom posed for Harrison Marks in the mid-fifties and only featured on early postcard sets and two photos of her were published in Kamera No.1 (1957). I’m not sure if this was taken by GHM, but a great close up shot of Teresa’s best assets! Incidentally one of the two shots of Teresa published in Kamera No.1 has her sat naked drinking from a cup and saucer, well why not! Thanks to Oxxbridge Galleries for allowing me to post a selection of their vast archive of original images.

Penny’s Sexy Seaside Pose
An original shot of Penny Winters kneeling in the shallow waters on the sea edge on Bedruthen beach, Cornwall, taken in May 1966. Penny was one of five models taken by Harrison Marks for the 2nd week of the Bedruthen shoot, the others included Alicen Warden (Robyn), Samantha, Gill Evans and Wendy James. Penny was a smaller framed model with small perky tits and shaven down below and this shot is a particularly good one of her, although I think she needs warming up looking at the goosebumps on her!
