June & The Foil Background

Not a new shot as it’s done the rounds on the internet before, just a higher resolution with the colours restored. Still it’s a cracking shot of JP with the familiar multi-coloured foil background!

June Palmer & Inspector Maigret!

More June images from the great John W archive!  Not only does John provide me with the ‘normal’ (read topless/nude as normal) type of June image, but he has also provided me with some different from the norm images of June. These give an insight into the life of June Palmer outside of her modelling work and the following images fall into that category.

These images are of June Palmer in a blue traditional Spanish dress attending the Chelsea Wine Festival in 1962.  The first two are originals from John, but the last is common on the Internet, but obviously from the same event.

June (second left) with actors Rupert ‘Maigret’ Davies and Paul Carpenter (original)


The most interesting image is probably the middle one where she is posing for an official photo at the Chelsea wine fair with Rupert Davies and Paul Carpenter, both renowned actors of the time.  Rupert Davies with his pipe was best known for his portrayal of ‘Maigret’ in the BBC series, which ran for 52 episodes between 1960 and 1963.

I suppose this could be classed as one of those ‘media’ events that today are so common and every actor or ‘star’ turns up for to be seen in the press.  Back then it seems to have had a little more class, especially if it involved JP!

On closer inspection the middle photo may also have been taken at a different time than the other two.  June seems to be wearing different white shoes and her hairstyle differs, but still worth keeping together.

Rachel Wells & The White Silk Dress (Original)

June Palmer as Rachel Wells (short dark wig) in a long white silk dress, taken in a hotel room on holiday, possibly Corsica again!  This comes from a set of 6 images and on looking, most of the images of JP as Rachel Wells seem to be on location somewhere warm or on holiday and taken on 120 film format by Arthur Howell.



Note: All images, original or otherwise have been carefully edited and restored where required and a lot of effort has gone into this and subject to this copyright notice.  Please feel free to share, but kindly link back to this original if sharing elsewhere, Many Thanks! – Wonder

June Palmer – Pix Magazine (High Res)

A beautiful image in high resolution of June Palmer from Pix Magazine Vol.2 No.5, Page 2.  Providing another internal shot of Ewhurst, as you can just see the driveway through the window and that vase appears in other shots around the house! Scanned from John W’s own private collection and restored by me :)

June Palmer – Girl Illustrated No.37

As promised, June Palmer from the pages of Girl Illustrated Vol.4 No.37 (1970).  The magazine shows three monochrome pictures, where she is shown wearing unzipped trousers and has shoulder length hair. The single colour shot appears to be an older photograph. GI states that she is only rarely modelling at the time, but has returned to the pages by popular request. This would tie in with the published date of 1970 and JP’s ‘retirement’ from public modelling, until her re-appearance in 1977.

June Palmer Coloured From Girl Illustrated

It feels like a bit of a June Palmer day, not that there is anything wrong with that!  Another coloured version of June Palmer from my friend Oldiznewagain over on Tumblr and it always amazes me how good he gets the skin tones on these!

The original comes from Girl Illustrated magazine published in 1970 and is part of a set of 4 images and I’ll be publishing the full set of images later.

Bathtime With June Palmer (Original)

I’ve seen one shot from this set before and it was one of my first June Palmer shots I published over on Tumblr here, but here are two more from the set.


These are originals sent by John and obviously from 120 film and taken in the late 1960’s, but as John says the bottle of Miss Dior on the side of the bath might give a clue as to when the picture was taken. Any packaging experts out there to help identify the year?  I’m sure my gran had that wallpaper as well!  These images were in excellent condition and needed a slight pink tinge removing and some minors specks of dirt.


Finally, what the hell is that contraption on the wall in the bottom picture?
