A Quick Dip with Maria Clarence

A shot of a nude Maria Clarence from one of the trips down to Cornwall that Harrison Marks took with his models.  This shot of Maria comes from Solo No.29 (1962) and although full frontal it’s not very well retouched in this shot.

Sissi Mississippi & Her Furry Friends

 

Sissi Mississippi from Nature’s Intention Vol.1 No.2 (1969) and a wonderful pose holding a teddy bear. I love the pouting expression on Sissi’s face in this shot and I’m not quite sure who is sporting the most fur, Sissi and her magnificent bush or the bear!

Rita Landre – Redhead in White

If we’re talking redheads we must not forget one of my all time favourite redheads that wasn’t and that was Rita Landre, or as we all know now Pamela Green in red wig. This shot of Rita amongst the white fur by Harrison Marks comes from the Carnival Annual 1956 and looks to have come from the same set as her on the cover of Foto No.13, which then dates that magazine around the same time. I’m sure that looks like the top of her areola peeking out above the top of the fur?

Ann Wilson – Girl Illustrated (1966)

Ann Wilson from the pages of Girl Illustrated Vol.1 No.3 (1966) and another redhead that always appeals. Of these 3 shots that appeared in the same edition of GI I have to say the middle followed by the last are my favourites, as I love those tasselled panties!

Lynn Shaw – A Leafy Outlook

Lynn (Lyn) Shaw from the inside cover of Carnival Annual (1956) photographed by Russell Gay. Lynn always looks so elegant in the shots I’ve seen and published of her and this is no different, although the strategically placed leaves over her nipples gave me a chuckle.

Margaret Nolan Branching Out!

Margaret Nolan from the centre pages of Glamorous Girls No.2, with the same image appearing in one of the later editions of Kamera that Margaret appeared in, sometime after No.50. Although the pose looks good I’m sure it wasn’t easy to stay balanced like that on that branch for long! No splinters anywhere delicate one hopes.

Gloria Lomax & The Transparent Negligee

Gloria Lomax or Donna Ambrose, whichever you prefer to call her posing next to a very ornate bottle that I’m sure I’ve seen Jackie Parker pose with as well. What was the point of the negligee other than the photographer can say she’s not nude, but she might as well be it’s so transparent! There’s even a hint of pussy showing, which for this type of shot usually found in QT by Russell Gay was quite daring. Still a wonderful shot of Gloria whatever way you look at it.

The Perfect Pamela Pose! (Original)

Just when you thought seen everything, something else pops in to your mailbox that makes you stop and stare and this was one of those images. A fantastic image of Pamela Green in a perfect pose, perched on a column by Harrison Marks one assumes.

Thanks to Simon for sending it through and adding some context around the image as it’s one I’ve never come across. It was used on a single image calendar back in the 1950’s (1957 I think), the type that had a company’s name branded on it. I saw a few of these on eBay some months back and they appeared to be banner size and quite long, with the branding at the top and the calendar part below the image. Very rare and they went for more than I could afford! Anyone seen or know of any other of these type of calendars, not just Pamela?

Still an absolutely stunning image of Pam and as a redhead and not Rita. It seems she went through a redhead phase in the late 1950’s as I’m finding more and more of her as a redhead with both short and long hair.

Zigrinda in Colour

A shot of the very sullen Zigrinda this time without the fuzzy hat, but showing some fuzz of her own! Unknown publication, but based on the image from Kamera No.87 I would say it was taken at the same location due to the gaudy background and taken by Harrison Marks.

I think the harsh fringe doesn’t help her expression, but maybe it was a wig as the collar and cuffs don’t match ;)
