Dedicated to the published work of Harrison Marks & other prominent photographers of the 1950's, 60's and early 70's. Along with popular glamour models such as June Palmer, Pamela Green, Dawn Grayson and others
Another original shot of June from 1973 taken by an amateur photographer that met and photographed June on occasions, this one showing her in a reclining view on a chaise lounge. The original was again very orange, either on purpose (filter) or due to negative quality, so converted to black and white. The focus seems to be aimed higher up June’s body on her face and upper torso, rather than the lush bush seen at the bottom of the shot (shame!).

Another scanned print of a nude June posing amongst the rocks on location, this time wearing what looks to be a short wig. A perfect shot of her curved hips in this pose and just a hint of her own crevice on view :)
Sorry for the lack of posts recently, but sometimes life conspires against you and you have to focus on the important things!
The lovely Christine Carter (Tina Graham) posing perched on the arm of an armchair with a skimpy négligée dropped round her waist, exposing her figure and boobs. Interestingly, there seems to be a couple of reel to reel recorders/players on the floor in the background, so I wonder what was happening in this front room with Chris!

June Palmer in a kneeling nude pose from the 1960’s and taken at Scotlee Studio. This comes from a set of six 35mm slides of June from Scotlee Films that I recently purchased and scanned. As is typical with slides from back then, it had a red hue to it, but came up very well after a bit of tweaking and shows off June’s curves.

When I first started blogging back in September 2012 my first four posts were of Hanna Viek, Mary Millington, Lillian Parker and Uschi Digart, closely followed by Sylvia McFarland, Roberta Pedon, Suzanne Pritchard and various others. Apart from Mary Millington, there was a bit of a theme going on with those posts and models. Which is obvious to see if you look through some of their images, and to be honest I’m still a big fan of them all today.
Thinking about it, for some reason I’ve never posted any Mary Millington on here, even though she worked for Harrison Marks on ‘Come Play with Me’, So I’ll have to rectify that at some point.
I recently won a set of 20 slides of Sophia Dawn over on eBay, and this is the first scan of those slides. Of the 20 slides, there are 4 different themes, but all seen to be taken at the same session. This shot is from a Spanish themed set of 8 slides that feature a topless Sophia Dawn in yellow Flamenco dress and colourful bead necklace. Most of the slides are close up shots similar to this, with the odd full length shot, but the quality of all is excellent for their age, with very little restoration required.
It wasn’t until I saw this set that I realized that Sophia looked very much like an ex-girlfriend of mine, both facially (without the beauty spot) and in her frame and boobs. Loving the green eye make-up and dark eyeliner, which all adds to the look of this shot.
A late 1950’s shot of Valerie Williams posing nude on the edge of a chair with and old fashioned white telephone on the table beside her. Great shot of Valerie’s figure and a very nice old fashioned phone, if you like those sort of things :)
The second of two shots from original negatives I own of Veronica Diemen from the 1971 Harrison Marks glamour film ‘Tailor Made’. I had no idea when I published the first image here who the model was, because at first glance it wasn’t obvious that it was Veronica. Thanks to new member Arty, he pointed out it could in fact be Veronica Diemen in the film and images, which is a fantastic find and spot, so thanks Arty! To back this up and prove it is in fact Veronica, you will see that she has a scar on her right-hand side that she is partially covering with her hand. If you look at any of the other published shots of Veronica throughout her career, you will always see that she either uses her hand to cover the scar or wears belts to cover it, not obvious unless you look.
So, another model identified that worked with GHM on one of his glamour films and a good excuse for me to dig out some more Veronica Diemen shots!

The second shot of June posing in long black open negligee sat in a red and white chair in the studio. Not quite as revealing as the first shot here, but still a worthy shot of June in black and the final shot I have from this set, the negligee is struggling to stay on even more!

The sixth shot from the set of images taken of June in the studio on glass photographic plates (12th August, 1960). This wonderful shot shows June sat striking a pose very similar to the ‘Vogue’ shot by Madonna, but with even less clothes on! Another very clean, crisp uncensored shot of June and I never tire of this set of images of her, with more still to come.
