Kay Fitzsimmons

Kay Fitzsimmons from Kamera No.87, Page 27 (1968). Kay posed for Harrison Marks and appeared in Solo No.14 and Kamera Calendar 1966. She also appeared on cover of Kamera No.29 and also in No.27, 38, 42, 43, 44, 52, 57, 64 & No.87.  This was the sole image used of her in No.87 and is obviously taken from an earlier period (1960?) than the others, but thrown in as a single image as GHM had a tendency to do!

Pam & Marie Shell Collecting!

Marie Deveraux and Pamela Green, both wearing wigs examining a shell on a beach.  Taken by Harrison Marks and probably taken on location on the Scilly Isles around May 1957.  

The intriguing thing is that Marie was a brunette wearing a blonde wig and Pam was a blonde wearing a brunette wig for this shot!  Although Pam may not have gone to the familiar blonde hair we know her for, it was still a long dark wig.  As always a beautifully posed shot with knees and thighs just in the right position for decency.

Beryl Gilchrist – Forms in Color

A nude Beryl Gilchrist reprinted in the 1960’s Danish magazine ‘Forms in Color No.5’, which were colour versions of Harrison Marks shots and uncensored!  I only seem to have several images from this magazine as one of the pages states it has over 130 pages and was published quarterly.  Anyone have a full copy?

Vicky

Known only as Vicky she posed for GHM on several occasions and appeared in Kameras No.83, No.84, No.86 and No.87. She was commonly associated with Stevie and both appeared in the Glamour film ‘Swinging High’. This shot comes from Kamera No.87 (1968) and was taken in the grounds of Ewhurst Manor as the wicker chair is a common prop with other models as well. Yes the pubic region has been severely retouched in this image!

Beach Beauty Pamela Green

An early Pamela Green shot by Harrison Marks from a silver gelatin photograph of her posing on some rocks naked. A stunning shot of Pam with her short dark hair and one that was probably taken in the late 1950’s and similar to the shots of her on the cover of ‘In Focus’ and some of the mid 1950’s Sun Bathing Review magazines.  Either way stunning and more to come ….

Jayne Tracey – Revue No.46

Two ‘uncensored’ shots of Jayne Tracey reprinted in the Danish publication ‘Nouvelle Serie De Revue’ No.46 by Harrison Marks on the space set used with many other models.

These magazines were published by Nordisk Bladcentral, Copenhagen and distributed by Sangko-Norden and there were several different publications, such as Play-Girl, Bazaar, Lotus, Charme, Nouvelle Serie De Revue and Nouvelle Serie De Studio.  Nearly all were re-prints of Harrison Marks work from Kamera and his other publications and feature all the familiar models from his work.
What is quite surprising is the addition of pubic hair in all these re-printed publications, as they are obviously added on to the original images, as the bushes are too perfect and uniform, but done well!  So we have a situation where for the UK market the images were retouched to remove any signs of pubic hair, due to UK censorship laws.  But the re-prints in the Scandinavian countries, where pubic hair was deemed OK, they added the hair back in!  It does beg the question as to why and could they not use GHM’s original untouched images rather than editing the pubic hair back in!  The answer may be as simple as that most of the originals didn’t have pubic hair as most of the models shaved similar to Pamela Green and Vivienne Warren.  Still seems like a lot of work to add the pubic hair back in, but then maybe the Scandinavian men liked their ‘Bush’, which you can’t complain about.
I’ve published several in the past and always wondered, but now you know. So when you see those perfect bushes on your favourite 1960’s models you will know they are probably from one of theses publications :)
