Della’s Backstage Strip (Original)

Sometimes it’s the most simple of shots that have the bigger impact than a straight forward nude, and this is one of those shots. A shot of Della Fox taking off her dress, either backstage or in a dressing room revealing her underwear below. So simple, yet so elegant seeing the white lace of the underwear in contrast against the black dress. It looks a bit crowded back there as well, with those two big cello’s, but it still doesn’t detract the focus away from a stunning looking Della!

Brenda’s Not So Grey!

It’s been a while since a Brenda Graham post, so a simple shot of her with clothes on (sort of!) in the great outdoors. Although that cardigan is hardly on! I have another from this same set, but she is again still in the grey cardigan and panties, but on assumes they come off or at least the top later in the set?

Gloria’s Balancing Act!


A lack of posts this week due to being spaced out on drugs with a very bad back, but one to keep you going and definitely something I couldn’t do at the moment! Gloria Lomax balancing on the top of the sofa in black stockings and white panties and from the same set as this shot.

Wrap Up Warm With June (Original)

Well winter has finally landed in the UK this week with the first real hard frosts and snow in places. So this original image of June dressed in gloves, boots and sheepskin coat seems appropriate today.

Dawn Grayson – Spick & Span Extra Cover (1967)

In between new posts and editing images I’m also trying to do updates to the current site content and one area I’m updating is the model profiles I’ve published. I’m currently working through Dawn’s profile, adding more images, adding a small database of magazine appearances, plus I’ll be updating her magazine cover appearances with better images, where I have them. One area that I was missing good covers was her early Beautiful Britons, Spick & Span appearances. In fact I have very little content of her from those appearances overall!

Thankfully that is about to change thanks to the generous support of Jonathan over at Vintage Fetish, who has kindly provided me with images of nearly all Dawn’s cover appearances for Town and Country Publications (ToCo). The above cover is the first good example of Dawn from Spick & Span Extra (Summer 1967), which like most of the covers from that early period has a certain painted effect to it, rather than a simple photo. A stunning cover of Dawn posing in an armchair with her hair in a plat, which I’ve never seen before!

Again, thanks to Jonathan for the covers and do go take a look at his site, as it’s my go to site for all Toco related publications and a great source for identifying unknown UK models.

June Palmer: Hold This Please?

Another promotional shot by London photo agency Cowderoy & Moss Ltd featuring June posing on a Lambretta Scooter. This time we see June down at the beach, sat astride the scooter in a fetching pair of striped pants, white cardigan top and scarf, as she hands off her bag to a chap in a beach hut! I always enjoy seeing this different side of June and her non-glamour work during the height of her career. It seems like she had enjoyed posing on Scooters and cars a lot. :)

M is for Mary Millington (Xmas Calendar)

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!

Cindy Neal – All Wrapped Up with a Bow! (1968)

Cindy Neal looking truly scrumptious in the kitchen in stockings, suspenders, low cut bra and apron covering the best bits, from Kamera No.88 P4 (1968). Add in the big bow on her head and the fact she’s got a box of Australian sultana’s on the table, she obviously cooking up something and looking delicious in the kitchen!

Judy Geeson (Original)

I’ve come across this model before in the shape of prints of her alone and with other models from the late 1950’s or early 60’s, but never been able to identify her. She re-appeared in my inbox yesterday after a conversation with Kevin about unknown models, who then sent me this shot. What is so stunning about this print, is the quality of the scan from a print that is over 50 years old, to the extent you could be mistaken for thinking it was a modern day photo. Secondly, the sheer beauty and elegance of the shot, the model looks stunning not only in her fishnets and underwear, but also her face and look and she’s not even naked! Although I do have other shots of her naked :)

Thanks to Kevin for this stunning beauty and worthy of being shared here.

Update: I now know who this is! It’s 1950’s US model Judy Geeson :)

Simply Margaret (Original)

[nonmember][/nonmember]

[member][/member]

The title says it all really as a simple portrait of a young Margaret Nolan, plain and simple. No nudity, just a straight on shot of Margaret looking directly at the camera, beautiful! This comes from a scan of a  35mm slide I own, it had some degradation, hence the slightly grainy look, but it doesn’t detract from the simple beauty of the shot.
