On The Right Track with Margaret (Original)

Margaret Nolan with longer hair posing for Harrison Marks on a railway line, probably on location down in Cornwall, as he’s used this track and location in shots before with other models. This image of Margaret also seems to come from the same shoot as this shot of her in the forest, as she seems to have the same hair style and make-up.

A stunning shot of Margaret on the tracks and she looks quite young in the shot, but still probably early to mid 1960’s I think?

Gloria’s Come to Bed Eyes!


The beautiful Gloria Lomax posing nude on the stairs at Ewhurst Manor for Harrison Marks, taken from an original medium format colour negative. A simple but effective shot and who could resist that look! I think the mask on the wall beside Gloria has its tongue out, but who wouldn’t with a naked woman like Gloria next to you!

June in Jeans (Original)

Another beautiful shot of a young dressed June posing in blouse and blue jeans in the park, which comes from a set of 10 different images of her in this outfit. Nothing risqué about these shots, but even so June looks as stunning as ever, even fully dressed. Thanks to John for sending over another wonderful set of June :)

No idea as to the location of the park, as you don’t get to see much of the background in the shot?

June on Glass, Box 1 Plate No.7 – Seated View (Original)

The 7th glass photographic plate of June taken by Leslie Bainbridge in the studio (12th August, 1960). This shot has June sat with her legs out to one side as she plays with her necklace, unfortunately there is a shadow on the right hand side and I’m not sure if that was in the studio at the time or on the glass plate itself. Still a worthy shot of June :)

June Palmer – A Quick Drinks Break! (Original)

We’ve had cigarette’s, now for booze and fast cars! A brilliant shot of June posing for a publicity shot or advert I assume, sat on the back of a vintage car with a glass of wine in hand.

The Grasshopper Inn, which is prominent in the shot still exists today and can be found in Westerham, Kent and is advertised as a privately owned, recently restored, beautiful Tudor building set in the idyllic Kent countryside.  There are many images of the Inn online, but I couldn’t find this particular view, but I’m sure it has changed considerably since then! It is also close to Oxted and I have other shots of June from this same shoot with her sat on the bonnet and roof of the darker vintage car at a crossroads with Oxted on a sign.

The darker car is possibly a Jaguar, as may the white one be, but not 100% sure? A great piece of June Memorabilia that is different from the normal glamour related stuff and a snapshot of things back then.

Update: Thanks to MadMax who sent this message to me – ‘The cars are both Elva Couriers and this looks very like a publicity photoshoot for advertising or brochures. Elva were based in Bexhill, then Hastings so this part of Kent would have been almost on their doorstep.’. Madmax is spot on because if you go to the Elva website there are two colour photo’s taken outside the Grasshopper at the same time as the one above, one even has June in it with the title “Arrive in style and enjoy a glass of ‘warm’ beer and a Babycham for your lady.” – Fantastic and thanks to MadMax.

On further searching I’ve found another shot of June posing in a bikini in a white Elva here, that identifies the car as a 1961 Trojan-built MkIII Elva Courier. I also found ‘Fast Elva Ladies’ Page featuring June in two shots as well here. Which then also led me to this image of June I’d already posted in the now identified car :)

I love stumbling across things like this and all from one image :) More images of June and the Elva to come …

June Palmer – Passport to Smoking Pleasure! (Original)

A brand new shot of June from John W’s collection, showing her enjoying a cigarette in front of the camera. I just love the use of the black background to help capture the smoke in the shot. John also included some quotes from cigarette adverts back in the 1960’s/70’s, such as ‘You’re never alone with a Strand’, ‘Cool as a mountain stream’ and ‘The international passport to smoking pleasure’. I can’t say I remember any of those, as I was far too young, but still funny seeing cigarette’s advertised in such a way, when now you can’t even show the packets in the shop, let alone see an advert on TV!

June Palmer – A Young & Nude Muse (Members)

One for members only, a young June from the late 1950’s sat posing nude for the camera, with a familiarly used black velvet background. I have several shots of June posing in front of this background from her early career and later in the 60’s, but I have no idea where they were taken. Possibly at either Strobe or ScotLee, but no way of really identifying which, unless someone knows?

This shot comes from an original colour 35mm slide that apart from the odd scratch and slight colour fade, was in excellent condition for it’s age.

Connie’s Seaside Splash!


Connie Fielding, dipping her toes in the sea wearing a stunning bikini that’s coming off at the shoulders! It’s actually Eve Eden or Rosa Domaille, but she went under the name Connie Fielding during this period of her career, when most of the shots of her were taken by Ed Alexander. No rude Rosa in these shots’ as they are actually quite tame compared to the many other shots we’ve seen of her under her various names!
