Madeleine Collinson (1952 – 2014)

A bit late, but got an email from friend of the site Ozprof that told me about the passing of Madeleine Collinson.
A voluptuous brunette Madeleine Collinson was born on July 22, 1952 in Malta. She’s the identical twin sister of Mary Collinson and they first arrived in Britain in April, 1969 and the duo were cast as saucy maids in Harrison Marks 8mm short “Halfway Inn.” Mary and Madeleine went on to be Playmates of the Month in the October, 1970 issue of “Playboy” and have the distinction of being the first pair of identical twin sisters to do a nude pictorial for “Playboy”. Following their modelling career the sisters acted in a handful of movies together; including the Hammer vampire horror outing “Twins of Evil.” Madeleine lived in Malta with her husband and three children. She died at age 62 on August 14, 2014 – RIP

Warning! Redhead with Seriously Sexy Curves Ahead!

An unknown redhead model posing on the bed for Harrison Marks, but my god what a figure and what curves! Thanks to Kevin for again sharing this stunning redhead with us :) Looks to be a slightly older model, not that I’m any good at getting ages right! anyone know who she is?

Loving the pink bedspread and matching curtains, looks like one of the rooms in GHM’s flat?

Eva Wild (1950's)

Eva Wild, one of the earlier Harrison Marks models that appeared in Kamera No.1, 6, 11 & No.15 as well as ‘In Focus’ issues No.1, 2 & No.13. As well as early copies of Carnival and Fiesta. This is an amazing shot of Eva by GHM and looks like it could have been a ‘selfie’ from the camera angle if taken today!

I love it when I get sent images from new contacts and this stunner of Eva comes from Kevin, whom I only just realized was also ‘Kevintagist’ over on eBay! Kevin runs Pinupmemories and has sent me through images in the past, but as soon as I saw this one I had to edit it and post it!

Kevin has some stunning original negatives over on his eBay site, including loads of great Harrison Marks slides, so go take a look. I’m hoping to tap him up for a few scans at some point, but what he has sent me so far, like Eva above are stunning high quality scans, so thanks Kevin!

Pamela Green – The Golden Hour!

Did Pamela Green ever take a bad photo? Looking at those I’ve published and seen so far I don’t think so, in fact the camera loved her and whatever pose she tried seemed to work. 

The above image is a good example of her at her best posing for Harrison Marks on the Scilly Isles for Kamera on Location (1958). Taken with one of GHM’s Rolleiflex (F.16/125) with a medium green filter in the golden hour (The hour before sunset) it captures Pam’s glistening body in the setting sun to perfection.  The shape she had her body, the curve of the hip toward the camera and not even looking at the camera all set this shot up and seems so effortless. Truly the golden age of glamour photography I believe!
