Copping a Feel In The Chrysanths (Original)

A very horticultural feel (boom boom!) to this original with plenty of flowers and bush on view! Another of my own negatives by Harrison Marks of an unknown duo in the garden at Ewhurst, with the blonde having a quick squeeze of her friends perky little tit.  Not the normal shot I would go for, but the combination of vibrant colours of this negative, plus two women having a play and showing off some serious bush caught my attention.  Nice tan lines as well!

Update: Thanks to Terry the model having her tit squeezed has been identifed as Julie Adams that he had the pleasure of photographing twice in 1969. Thanks Terry!

Update 2: Thanks to member MadMax he’s identified that this still is from the 1970 GHM film ‘Scouts Honour’, filmed at Ewhurst Manor. Now Terry Sparks has helpfully identified Julie Adams but she doesn’t appear in the film. Toni Burnett appears at the end of the film with Josie, her daughter, on her lap, so she is not one of the two main stars. I’m certain that the two main girls are Maria Frost and Delia Thomas and they appear together in several stills.  So it suggests that the girl with Julie Adams in your image is Delia Thomas (a name that Terry may remember?) – Thanks Max for all the information :)

The Jones Girls Make It Roman Style!


A shot of Marina Jones and Ann Jones from the glamour film ‘Make Mine Roman Style’, made on the Roman Set built for the feature film ‘The Naked World of Harrison Marks’ in 1965.  The original loop film was made in colour and 75ft long and was film No.62 in the GHM film catalogue.

Terry Graham Cat Fight!

For all you girl on girl lovers out there, Terry Graham pinning down Nicky James in a scene from the 1969 glamour film ‘Garden of Pleasure’.  

Looking at this still that’s definitely one film on my Xmas list from Santa! Although it could do with being a bit longer as it runs for just under 9 minutes in total, which in my opinion isn’t long enough!

Aphrodisia Review

There is a great review over on Gavcrimson’s blog about Aphrodisia, the 1970 glamour film from Harrison Marks, which came in two parts.  The first part came with the description – ‘A film featuring eight characters in sexual action to excite and amuse. A story in the 007 style with fabulous birds and sexy bad men including one virile young man called Captain X. Meet Cherry Doubleday, blonde innocent and beautiful, and a group of delectable girls’


What interested me was that ‘Captain X’ was played by none other than Emmett Hennessy, who contacted me and this site to see if I had a copy of Aphrodisia.  Unfortunately I hadn’t, but I’m glad to see Emmett got in contact with Gav and has been able to acquire a copy of the film he starred in.

Excellent review, so go take a read as I’m always amazed at the amount of details Gav manages to find!




June Palmer – Original 'Calamity June' 16mm Film Scan

And now for something completely different and original!  A scan of an original piece of the colour 16mm film ‘Calamity June’. 

The first thing I noticed was it was in colour, as the copy of ‘Calamity June’ I have is black and white!  This was from a reel of offcuts and out-takes from Arthur Howell, provided to a contact of mine John*, who had hoped there would be enough to make his own version of the film, but sadly there wasn’t. At least there are some nice stills to share.
 
Arthur told John he had sold the 16mm colour originals of his films to George Harrison Marks, so who knows where they are today, but a 16mm copy, surfaced on Australian eBay a few years ago and went for about £5000!

June Palmer The Newlywed (Video Clip)

Another great little find over on YouTube from John W  The Clip is of June Palmer in a short extract from the never finished epic “Brides in the Bath”, shot by June’s then husband Arthur Howell.
Summary: George finds that being married to Margaret is not what he thought it would be as he has several attempts at getting amorous with Margaret, all ending in failure!  In a brilliant piece of casting June plays the dowdy middle-aged spinster Margaret Elizabeth Lofty, who remains clothed (Just!) throughout despite George ‘s best efforts!

As John on his summary says – I think Palmerphiles round the world would like this clip, which has never been seen since it was shot, I think in 1971.

'Jayne Tracey' (8mm Film)

I came across this wonderful short Glamour film of Jayne Tracey over on Dailymotion by user gpgoogle and just had to share it!  Not only does it star one of my favourite 1960’s models stripping, but shows a brief glimpse of 1960’s central London at the beginning.

Apparently it is an early 8mm glamour film by Pete Walker (better known for his 1970’s horror films)  under his company Heritage Films, which produced a number of glamour shorts. I’ve added the title ‘The Vocalist’. but don’t believe that is the original title.

Other glamour films produced by Heritage Films that I’ve not seen, but would be interested in getting a copy are:

Dawn Grayson in “There Was An Old Lady”
Dawn Grayson in “The Burglar”
Dawn Grayson in “Dawn’s Law”
Annette Johnson in “Dream of Annette”
Annette Johnson in “008 Stripped for Action”
Jayne Tracey in “Funny Customs”
Jayne Tracey in “Tricky Tricks”
Jayne Tracey & Anne Wilson in “The Secretary’s Secret”

So if anyone out there knows where to get hold of copies please let me know?
