Jean & Mary: A Couple of Happy Campers!


Jean Spaul and Mary Deighan looking very happy as the pose for Harrison Marks by a cliff edge. Images of these two along with Pamela Green appeared in Kamera No.30 (1960) and also the hardback book ‘She Walks in Beauty’.

Jean had a very small build compared to Mary who had more curve appeal, but a great contrasting duo :)

More Backstage in Black! (1959)


Madeleine Mado (Maria Hale), Mary Deighan and Pamela Green posing in the dressing room from a 35mm Pamar colour slide. I love the fact it looks like just a snapshot of them all as they undress, but I’m sure it was posed, which shows how natural all three were at posing. Pam looks great stepping out of that petticoat revealing her black underwear :)

Backstage in Black (1959)


The unforgettable Madeleine Mado (Maria Hale), Mary Deighan and Pamela Green posing in the dressing room from a 35 mm Pamar colour slide sent over by Kevin. Although this image of the three girls was taken at the same time as the other images that appeared in Kamera backstage, this specific shot doesn’t actually appear in the publication, so maybe only ended up as a slide?

Poster Girl Mary Deighan


A beautiful rearview of Mary Deighan by Harrison Marks posing in the studio in front of a wall covered with Bill Posters from the Theatre in the 1960s. Superbly arranged shot, including the very nice rearview of Mary in stockings.

Three Backstage Beauties


Madeleine Mado (Maria Hale), Mary Deighan and Pamela Green posing in the dressing room from a 35 mm Pamar colour slide sent over by Kevin. This reminds me of this image that started me on this journey back in 2013, where does the time go! Although this image of the three girls was taken at the same time as the other images that appeared in Kamera backstage, this specific shot doesn’t actually appear in the publication, so maybe only ended up as a slide?

Mary Deighan – A Pert Pair! (1958)


Mary Deighan shot from above as she poses on the bed at GHM’s flat from Kamera No.11 P11 (1958). Mary had a great figure, but wasn’t blessed with the largest of chests, in fact a very pert pair and weren’t her nipples little!

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. :)

Mary Deighan's Behind (1958)

An early shot of Mary Deighan from Kamera No.11 (1958) giving us a perfect view of her great bottom as she poses bent over a bed for Harrison Marks. This photo also confirms that it may well have been taken at GHM’s flat and that this photo was taken by him as well, as it has the same curtains in both shots :)
