A very serene and natural Sue Owen with dark hair. A beautiful pose captured by Harrison Marks and published in Nature’s Intention Vol.1 No.1 ‘A Series of Natural Art Studies’ in 1969.
Neva vs Sissi – Battle of The Bush!


Not sure of the two who had the biggest natural bush, either way it must have been an editing nightmare back then to hide it all for the censors!
Here we have Neva posing on the ‘Lantern Cottage’ set letting her hair down and showing it all and Sissi Mississippi at one with nature in the grounds of Ewhurst Manor.
Sissi on the other hand was always au natural and as a strip artist from Italy always refused to get rid of her magnificent bush (rightly so!). This was more common with continental models, where showing such plumage was more accepted.
Both images were published by Harrison Marks in Nature’s Intention Vol.1 No.1 ‘A Series of Natural Art Studies’ in 1969. For me I think Sissi edges it on sheer mass, but both look magnificent!
Thanks to Madmax for identifying the top model as Neva and not Velma Loftus!

What The Photographer Saw – Pamela Green (1952)
On Monday I published a single image of Pamela Green and a Soldier by Zoltan Glass, which was followed up with the full article from Lilliput Magazine in December 1952 from Simon. Anyone that looked through the full article will have noticed a reference to Pamela appearing in an earlier edition of Lilliput that same year.
I now have that earlier article and the six images of Pamela by six different photographers of the time. The photographers included Roger Wood, Alan Duncan, Philip Gotlop, Philip Boucas, Angus McBean and my particular favourite of the lot Joan Craven. The article appeared in Liiliput Magazine, September – October 1952 and I’ve included the cover for completeness. Thanks as ever to Simon for the scans from his collection!
June Johnson
June Johnson another model that posed for GHM only a couple of times in the mid 1960’s, then seems to have disappeared! Appeared in Kamera No.73 and modelled on the ‘Lantern Cottage’ set and appears in a set inside with Christmas cards hanging around. Such a shame as another full figured woman with a very nice bush! This shot appeared in Nature’s Intention Vol.1 No.1 ‘A series of Natural Art Studies’ in 1969.
Striking a Pose With June Palmer (Original)
Ah what to say! Another more formal/artistic pose from a young June Palmer sent through by John. This is an earlier one of June (Late 1950’s?) and shows off her curves again to perfection. I’ve said it before, but these poses just can’t be beaten today and the likes of June and Pamela Green just knew instinctively how to pose to get the best shot! An art seemingly lost in today’s instant world of point and shoot!
