The exquisite figure of Jennifer Garland in stockings and garters as seen through a bed frame from Kamera No.17
Elaine Desmond – Etudes No.7 Cover
Elaine Desmond sporting a wicker hat on the cover of Etudes Plastique Album No.7 (1955) by Belorgey and Roland Carre. A wonderful 32 page French magazine, but unfortunately the only recognisable model is Elaine on the cover, the rest although very nice are unknown French/European models.
I must say that for a 59 year old magazine it is in exceptional condition, as these magazines have detachable covers similar to a dust jacket. That means the magazine inside is nearly perfect condition with no wear to the page edges of discolouration. It came as part of a bundle of magazines I aquired and rather than putting it to one side to gather dust I thought I’d have a go at selling it on eBay. Take a look if interested, but in the meantime enjoy the cover :)
Kamera Backstage – Act VI Three Stunning Blondes
I finally have a copy of Kamera Backstage thanks to Yak over on the official Pamela Green site who sent me a copy. I love this 64 page special produced by Harrison Marks in 1959 and this image is a fine example of why I love it so much!
The stunning figures of Pamela Green, Mary Deighan and Madeleine Mado, better known as Maria Hale without the long blonde wig. All tastefully posed and lit in the wings or side stage.
June Simpson by Lawrence Venn
The distinguishable June Simpson posing on leopard skin rug for Lawrence Venn. This was taken from the pages of Photographic Rhythm No.1 (1950’s) by Lawrence Venn and featured models such as Eve Eden and others that I recognise but can’t name yet.
The magazine itself is a 34 page medium format (9 x 7 inches) publication featuring full page black and white nudes, with a back page of photographic technical data to make it all seem legit.
Note: This image may look edited as though it’s be cut out and pasted onto the background, this wasn’t done by me (I’m not that clever!) but part of the original publication!
