Wishing everyone a Happy Christmas and prosperous New Year from Kamera Club HQ! Also a big thank you to everyone that supported the site over the last year with images, films, feedback and comments as it’s always appreciated and makes the site what it is :)
Enjoy the coming festivities and as always things will start to slow down as we get nearer to the Christmas break, but not just yet!
Kathie Gale by Harrison Marks in a kneeling pose in the living room of GHM’s flat. Until recently Kathie was down as another unknown, but I came across some other negatives of her that were named and associated the two.
A beautiful figure with a nice smooth mound and love the freckles, but a bit of a harsh haircut and another beauty to add to the model list :)
The lovely Robyn Daye by Terry Sparks and yet another model from my collection of original restored contact sheets. Not sure if that was the model’s real name or play on words with the other Robin Day of that time. I sure prefer this Robyn Daye to the journalist, that’s for sure. :)
Now for a shot from my all-time favourite set featuring Dawn Grayson, and she’s not even nude! I’ve been in love with this different set of images of Dawn since I started collection memorabilia of Dawn, and I’ve been searching for originals from this set since then. I originally came across several shots of Dawn from this set in Spick & Span Extra No.31 and loved it. There is something about seeing Dawn in a bath full of water still partially dressed in her wet underwear and stockings, and she just looks so damn sexy. I’m sure it wasn’t as sexy and exciting as it looked in reality, but she sure pulled it off well.
Anyway I finally got hold of one of the original medium format negatives as you see above, but would love to get hold of more, but they seem very hard to come by for some reason. Anyway, if anyone knows where I can get hold of the others or even high-res digital scans of the originals I would be eternally grateful. Dawn at her sexiest in my mind. :)
A very colourful shot of the model known only as Michelle by Harrison Marks. A stunning pose from Michelle that is slightly overpowered by the different vibrant colours in the shot, from the patterned orange curtains or the large blue seating area. The colour and styles are very late 1960s and have appeared in many other shots from GHM, but seeing them in colour really makes things stand out!
Saying that, Michelle is a stunning blonde and looks fabulous in that open long sheer négligée. A shot from this set appear in Nature’s Intention Vol.1 No.2 (1969). She seems to have a thing for wearing négligées, as the only other shot I have of her from Kamera No.87
A restored 10 by 8 print of the bountiful Suzi Shaw by Russell Gay taken at his studio. A typical shot that went on to appear in the likes of QT or Model magazines, with the model posing in underwear or other loose garments with various odd props dotted around. Still a rather nice shot of Suzi and her large tits hanging down in this pose :)
A 10 by 8 print of Lorraine Burnett posing topless at Ewhurst Manor. Another shot similar to this one where Lorraine has shorter hair and fabulous lashes and make-up, all helping to highlight her magnificent chest!
Another model taken by Terry Sparks in different rooms around a familiar house from a set of contact sheets in my collection. This time it’s well known UK model Juliette Adams sat posing at a dressing table brushing her hair as she poses for the camera nude. A great shot of Juliette and her slender body and thick full bush, and love the shoe holder on the side of the wardrobe and the handy Scotties tissues close by! :)
Another superb shot of the unknown classic beauty by Harrison Marks with a stunning figure, but this time I have a name! This model appears multiple times throughout early GHM photo sets advertised in the Harrison Marks Glamour Guide and Kamera. This stunning shot showing off her magnificent tits comes from set No.44 of the 72 Stereoscopic sets of 5 prints.
Now the name associated with this busty beauty as provided by a number of people including member Billboard is Candy Bell or Belle, depending on where you search for her. So now we have name even if it’s not real for this classic beauty and thanks to all for providing it and reminding me :)
After identifying this model as Anita St. John, I’m finding her pop up in my collection all over the place!
This fabulous shot of her is by Leslie Bainbridge from an original 10 by 8 print sent over by John and shows her posing precariously on a very broken gate! As with all Bainbridge shots, Anita is smooth down below and actually shows off more down there than in any other shot I’ve seen of her.
Superb shot and hope she didn’t get any splinters in unwanted places from that gate :)
