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
A very elegant looking Jean Spaul (Sporle) from Kamera No.4 P4 (1957) who not only posed nude for many of the early Kamera editions, but also got the job as one of the girls in the office at Harrison Marks studio. What an office stunner!
Not much you need to explain about this shot really as it speaks for itself, Angela Jones stood in GHM’s flat with her robe open showing everything, including a bit of stubble down below!
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.
Another appearance on this blog for Mary Millington, although unlike some of my other favourite models she can legitimately be here! Mary’s career is well known and documented, including one of her most famous and successful films ‘Come Play with Me’, filmed by non other than Harrison Marks. There are other links to Mary and GHM over her career, so I thought I’d share an image of her here, not the normal stuff rather a tasteful semi dressed shot, as the other stuff can come later.
Another titbit I’ve just found out whilst looking on the Mary Millington website. The fictitious ‘Bovington Manor’ in Come Play with Me was used by Harrison Marks to shoot scenes for his film, The Nine Ages of Nakedness in 1968 and eight years later to film Come Play with Me and it’s literally two miles down the road from where I live! Now a manor hotel it’s still open for business and a little piece of GHM history I didn’t realize was on my own doorstep!
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!
I’d like to wish everyone a Happy Christmas and prosperous New Year. I’d also like thank all of you that have supported the site and me over the last year, with feedback, comments and new content. It’s always appreciated and what makes the site what it is and keeps me wanting to come back and do more and more.
Sorry, I copped out of the letter i for the calendar, but decided to create this year’s Christmas card instead. The card features one of my original images of Caroline Coon under the alias Mary Stephan posing on the Festive/Winter set. So very apt and if you look very closely in the shadow of the present you can just see a hint of bush! Most of the shots on this set went on to appear in the Kamera Winter Special (1967), but this one doesn’t, so was either unpublished or more likely appeared in a normal edition of Kamera I’ve missed!
Thanks and I hope you enjoy the Christmas break with your families and friends :)

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?

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.

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!
A stunning view of Susie Shaw taken by Harrison Marks laying on a carpet in his flat and published in Kamera No.48 P33 (1962). There are five shots of Susie in this edition, either on the carpet such as this one, or posing in the kitchen. I even have one of the original negatives from this set, which I will post at a later date. Susie is a new GHM model to me, but she sure had a fine figure and bosom on her!
