Pamar Colour Slide Catalogue (1957)

I’ve been after a copy of this Pamar Colour Slides catalogue for some time now and thanks to Paul from Firebird Records I now have a copy to share. Pamar Productions Ltd was formed by both Pamela Green and Harrison Marks in June, 1957 (Even before Kamera No.1 was published) with both being equal partners in a venture to provide quality 35mm slide sets of the models. This catalogue shows 81 sets produced under the Pamar title, but these shouldn’t be confused with slide sets titled ‘Harrison Marks Colour Slides’ and produced by Kamera Cine Films, of which there were 70 sets produced. Another difference between the different slide sets was that originally the Pamar sets came in a small box, whereas the later sets were sold in a flat transparent plastic wallet.

Having now looked through this catalogue I realize I have over 30 individual Pamar slides in my collection, but unfortunately no full sets! It seems that over the years these sets have been broken down and sold on individually, with many not even having the original grey cardboard holder, just the colour negative itself.

Enjoy the catalogue below and I hope it helps identify the slides and sets produced, as I know it helped me, as I now have to go back and tag the slides I’ve collected to the set name and number. All good fun!

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?

Pamela & Marie – Opposite Views (1958)


Pamela Green and Marie Deveraux posing amongst the dunes in 1958 from Kamera on Location P61. What is quite interesting is that the two of them appear to have opposite coloured wigs on from their normal hair! Marie with a blonde wig when she was dark at this time, and Pam with a dark wig when she was blonde, plus the addition of the mandatory scarf!

The Pamela Green Nude Posing Guide No.4 (1973)


Something rather unique and special sent to me by friend of the site and long time Pamela Green fan Simon and something I had never seen before. The Pamela Green Nude Posing Guide No.4 published in 1973 by Pam with photo’s taken by Douglas Webb. The guide is 4 pages including the cover and features Pamela in 48 different poses across 3 pages in a contact sheet style, with each image having a number (The image above was No.342). Two pages feature poses by Pam on a white background as above, with the other page being on a black background, with lots of use of light and shadows.

The date of this guide would put Pamela’s age at 43/44, so later in her career, way beyond her time with Harrison Marks, but also a time when I have seen very little of her ‘older’ work. All the shots are very artistically posed and show off Pam’s body at it’s very best, but as you can see are uncensored and show Pam in a more natural state than her early career.

Raunchy Rita’s Bedroom Pose!


Pamela Green in the guise of Rita Landre posing in a raunchy opened shirt shot on the loft set by Harrison Marks. As always, a perfectly executed pose by Pam, to the point that a precisely placed front hand on the bedpost casts a shadow at just the right spot to hide things between her legs. If you look hard you can just see an outline of things though!

Rita’s Little Leather Look! (1958)


Pamela Green as Rita Landre posing in open blouse and short leather skirt from Kamera Special No.2 P51 (1958). A shot from this set of photo’s it features Rita in a short (red) leather skirt, open blouse and a bejewelled cross necklace.

Rita Landre – Nothing But Fur! (1959)


Pamela Green, posing as Rita Landre with nothing but a white fur coat for cover! Taken by Harrison Marks and published in the 1959 hardback book, P54 ‘Pamela – A Portrait in 58 Studies’, a beautiful shot of Rita with a quizzical look on her face.

Pam’s All Choked Up!
