June Russell: A Hand For Decency!


Another early shot of June Russell, who modelled for Harrison Marks and appeared in the early editions of Kamera and some of his early Pamar 35 mm slide sets, such as this one. A fabulous view of June’s figure and tits, with just a hand in place for decency. :)

Pam's Wet Look!


Another sultry looking shot of Pamela Alexander taken by Paul Pantha (Terry Sparks). Taken in the sea down in Pegwell Bay, which was a popular location for Terry, she looks cold in this shot.

Regardless, she is a stunning woman facially, especially her eyes and I just love the way the dress has fallen off one shoulder to reveal a little hard nipple.

June Russell – Femme Cover (1958)


Crushing corsets is June Russell on the cover of the Harrison Marks publication Femme. The first issue of Femme appeared in the summer of 1958. It had a Harrison Marks’ photograph of June Russell on the cover, but it featured photographs ‘from Britain, America, and the Continent’ of nude and seminude female models by other photographers as well as GHM himself. The 1958 edition had no issue number and may have been a one-off, but another issue appeared some time later. From this issue, ‘Femme’ reverted to the tried and tested 7″x 5″ pocketbook size and appeared as The New Femme No.1.

A stunning shot of June Russell in white corset, pink frilly knickers and fishnets and the floral wallpaper makes an appearance in many of GHM’s early shots.

Classic Lorraine!


A brilliant shot and pose of Lorraine Burnett by Russell Gay from an original print in my collection. I just love the fancy stockings and pearl necklace in this shot, plus the tin foil background, which in colour shots seems to have a multicoloured look to it. Classic Lorraine in the way she looks and poses, and this shot probably appeared in either Model or QT, both published by Gay.

Margaret Nolan in Glorious 3D!


Go grab your old Red/Cyan 3D Glasses again as I present to you once more Margaret Nolan in eye-popping 3D! Those boobs just jump out at you from the screen, although the arm and hand seem to be heading this way as well. Obviously 3D technology has moved on since this, but what better way to put those old 3D glasses to use, than by looking at gorgeous naked bodies such as Margarets.

June Palmer – November 83 Looked a Good Month!

A fantastic bit of memorabilia! It’s the November page of the 1983 calendar from Duplex Communications and features a fabulous shot of a mature June Palmer basking naked in the sun on the sea edge. I don’t know if this was actually taken in 83 or earlier, but it’s definitely a more mature June with fuller figure.

I remember seeing this type of calendar in workshops and garages back in the day, before it became sexist and started causing offence! They seemed to be everywhere, and can remember there being several up around the garage workshop where my dad worked, plus a huge pile of discarded ones in the corner. Just imagine what those calendars would go for now, especially the good ones like Pirelli, Snap-on Tools and Dunlop. Oh, for a time machine so I could go back and collect up all those discarded ones in a box to keep for now. :)

Thelma by Doug Burn


An original scan of a medium format negative of Thelma by Doug Burn from the 1950s.  Thelma was another lesser known Harrison Marks model that appeared for him in Kamera No.4, 5, 9 and No.11 (Cover) in 1957/58, then seems to have disappeared? It now looks like she did some other modelling in the 50s for other photographers as well.

This was sent over by Tim, a contact who has a collection of 1950s negatives by Doug Burn including Thelma, Lorraine Burnett, June Russell and other models and actresses from that period. Interestingly, the index card for Thelma also has the name Bahia Ali, so another different name. Tim is also selling his negatives over on eBay, so go take a look here. :)
