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
Simply stunning hips and those curves of her body as she kneels there look fabulous. I’m not sure about having a lit cigarette so close to that plastic as she kneels there, but I’ll forgive her on the health and safety issue at work on this occasion. Who wouldn’t with her looking like that!
A smoking hot shot of a very sophisticated, but nude Sylvana Manto (Madelaine Bannister) posing in long black gloves from the late 1950s.
A very sexy, sophisticated look with those long black gloves, earrings, and the cigarette holder. Although, the cigarette would be frowned upon today. Still, it’s a fabulous shot of Sylvana and her curves. :)

June palmer posing in short silver wig as ‘Candy’ on holiday and probably taken by Arthur Howell. This comes from John W, and as he comments it shows June posing with a cigarette beside some mono water skis, maybe to clam the nerves before she takes to the water, but more likely just a good spot to pose. A great holiday shot and the white bikini once again shows off June’s figure to perfection.

A brand new shot of June from John W’s collection, showing her enjoying a cigarette in front of the camera. I just love the use of the black background to help capture the smoke in the shot. John also included some quotes from cigarette adverts back in the 1960’s/70’s, such as ‘You’re never alone with a Strand’, ‘Cool as a mountain stream’ and ‘The international passport to smoking pleasure’. I can’t say I remember any of those, as I was far too young, but still funny seeing cigarette’s advertised in such a way, when now you can’t even show the packets in the shop, let alone see an advert on TV!
I love this set of Rita Landre (Pam Green) on the Alley Set, which appear in Kamera No.23 (1960) and I particularly like the top shot! Wearing just her fur shawl and stockings stood against the Parisian posters, she looks like a very high class lady of the night, waiting for her next gentleman visitor. You can see all of the shots from this set I have so far, including a stunning colour shot here.
Over the time this site has been running John has sent me various candid shots of June working at Strobe studios and I always planned on writing an article about June at Strobe, but just never got round to it! I either got distracted with better images that I wanted to publish, or, well there isn’t another excuse I just didn’t do it. To rectify that here are three shots of June at work at Strobe in the 1960’s. She can be seen sat posing dressed (for now!) in a very 1960’s style tunic as photographers go about taking shots of her. What amazes me is that her cigarette’s aren’t very far away and you can see the ashtray and her smoking in a couple of shots. I know she smoked most of her life, but I didn’t realize she smoked so much.
Thanks to John for these 3 candid shots, with another for the same set still to publish.
Pamela Green posing as Rita Landre on the Alley Set, or should it be Parisian Alley set with ‘The Cat’. This came from Kamera No.23 (1960) and was actually titled ‘La Chatte’ and probably one of GHM’s own beloved cats making another guest appearance in one of his shots. I think this set of Rita posing in and around the alley has to be one of my favourites of her.
