June & The Foil Background

Not a new shot as it’s done the rounds on the internet before, just a higher resolution with the colours restored. Still it’s a cracking shot of JP with the familiar multi-coloured foil background!

Princess Sonmar H'Arricks in the Hay!

A beautifully restored shot of Pamela Green as Princess Sonmar H’Arricks (or Harricks depending on who you speak to!) by Harrison Marks and used in he 1961 Kamera calendar.  Her name is an anagram of Harrison Marks if you didn’t already know and god knows how long it took her to ‘black’ up for these shots.

Thanks to Simon for the huge scans of the 1961 calendar that allowed me to restore the images to the quality above.  I previously published the images from the 1961 calendar, but will be replacing them over the next few weeks with bigger and better shots.




Note: All images, original or otherwise have been carefully edited and restored where required and a lot of effort has gone into this and may be subject to this copyright notice.  Please feel free to share, but kindly link back to this original if sharing elsewhere, Many Thanks! – Wonder

Annette Johnson – The Coal Miners Daughter

I’ve been very remiss with publishing some models and Annette Johnson is one of them, so I’ll set things straight with this lovely shot of Miss Johnson.

Annette became one of GHM’s regular models and was a coal miner’s daughter from Lancashire. Her career started very similar to many models in 1960’s when she started posing with local camera clubs and was posing by age 16 upstairs for the owner of the local shoe store in which she was working,  her blond hair was real and so was everything else..

By 1970/71 she had apparently finished nude work for good, a short career compared to others. She was to reappear in the 1980’s working for Knave magazine as an agony aunt and posing with a more rounded and mature figure and unafraid to show more of herself than in the past.


She worked professionally under at least three other names, including Annette Scotson, Karen Fraser and Annette Bristow to name a few.  A lovely lady by all accounts and one that loved her pets, both cats and dogs.
