Backstage with Pam, Mary & Madeleine (1959)


Two shots of Pamela Green, Mary Deighan and Madeleine Mado (Maria Hale) from Kamera Backstage (1959). Both shots are very elegantly done, with all 3 models fitting well into the same shot. My favourite is the top shot with Mary and Pam wearing the nipple covers or pasties, whatever they are called, and Madeleine in the background. The bottom shot is all about the use of light and shadows bouncing off the bodies of the 3 girls, and it works very well with the shape of the bodies and the different perspectives. One of my favourite early Kamera Specials. :)

Madeleine Mado – Kamera Calendar, May 1960

It’s been a while since I posted a page from one of the Kamera Calendars, so he is a scan of my own copy of the 1960 Kamera Calendar. This one features a studio shot of Madeleine Mado (Maria Hale) in a long blonde wig stood at a dressing table.  I’ll be adding a gallery of the 1960 calendar shortly.

I’m still missing a copy of the 1965 calendar, if anyone has one they are willing to share :)

Maria Hale/Madeline Mado

Maria Hale/Madeline Mado Lynn Reeves (Katherine James) from a restored Harrison Marks 35mm Slide. Another Spick & Span model that also posed at times for GHM, but lesser known than most! with dark hair, than with the long Blonde wig worn as Madeline Mado!

Thanks to MadMax for spotting this once again :)
