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
Sophia Dawn, taken by Harrison Marks on a railway track down in Cornwall. I’ve seen this location used several times by GHM, but this shot has to be my favourite, as I love the pose from Sophia plus the wonderful smile. Taken on location down in Devon, not far from Bedruthan, and it’s famous beach and steps I would guess? I bet her bum was cold on that track!
Update: Thanks to Omigosh who thinks the train track is Pencarrow on the Wenford Bridge line – very few trains, so “safe” and only a dozen or so miles from Bedruthan.
S is for Sophia Dawn looking damn sexy in this shot wearing long black gloves, black corset and stockings as she sits straddling a chair. Not a Harrison Marks shot, but from a ToCo publication such as Spick & Span, but for the life of me can’t remember which one or the edition?
A restored 35 mm colour slide from my own collection of the always glamorous Sophia Dawn. Although it looks in this shot that she’s fallen on hard times, as the blouse she is nearly wearing has seen better days and is falling apart to reveal a glimpse of tanned tits and nipple below it! I have several 35 mm slide collections of Sophia, but this one of her with the ripped blouse and red background is on its own, so I have no idea who took it or if there are more? It’s too good not to share, as the quality is excellent.
Sophia Dawn posing nude and uncensored by the fireplace, giving us a perfect view of her figure and smooth shaven labia. An original shot taken by Harrison Marks on the Cinderella set, although it could easily be a witches’ cottage with the broom and cauldron, but who cares about the props! No idea if this particular shot ever got published in one of GHM’s publications?
Or should that be a bloomin’ good rearview of Sophia Dawn in bloomers and stockings as she bends over the bed looking back at the camera! From the same set as this shot, taken by Russell Gay.
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.
