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!

Cheese Cake Favourite – Gina Graham

Gina (Tina) Graham or Christine Carter from the centre pages of Parade No.1196 (Week-ending Saturday 10th November, 1962).  

Anyone that has ever owned or handled a copy of Parade Magazine will know how flimsy the magazine is and the paper it was printed on!  The Centrefolds always tend to be missing or very poor quality, but this one was stunning! The whole magazine is in very good condition for 51 years old and has retained it’s colour extremely well!

The above has been stitched together and staple marks removed, but other than that it’s pretty much as it looks in the magazine.

This shot doesn’t really do it justice, but a larger version can be seen … here

A Shower with Frankie Young

And frankly (pun intended!) who wouldn’t want a shower or bath with her! Beautiful shot, but not 100% convinced it is Frankie (Francesca) Young, but the facial features and eye make-up are consistent with other shots of her.

Cheryl Peters – Girl Illustrated Souvenir Edition No.1

Since when did I start doing requests ;)  Anyway not a model that posed for GHM, but still from the 1960’s and appeared in the usual publications from that time, so why not!  I’m becoming quite a fan of Girl Illustrated as the quality of the magazine and full page images were exceptional! These shots come from the GI Souvenir Edition No.1 (April 1969), where Cheryl was Souvenir Study No.7 and what a nice study!
