Dedicated to the published work of Harrison Marks & other prominent photographers of the 1950's, 60's and early 70's. Along with popular glamour models such as June Palmer, Pamela Green, Dawn Grayson and others
A second shot of Susan Shaw (Gisa) by Paul Pantha (Terry Sparks) posing topless leaning against a table with her corduroy trousers unzipped. The house is unknown, but she appears in several rooms and locations outside throughout this set of photo’s. A stunning topless shot very reminiscent of a typical Sun page 3 shot, which she did appear on various times during her career. :)
Louise Worth sat posing on a four-poster bed from Kamera No.80 cover (1967) by Harrison Marks. The four-poster bed was actually in a bedroom at Ewhurst Manor. It seems to appear in other shoots, including a set featuring Margaret Nolan and others. :)
The stunning Sophia Dawn sat outside the cottage at Ewhurst on the bonnet of a Mini Cooper. So much to like about this shot the car, the location, or even the model, even though she’s dressed! Saying that, I love the dress and frilly petticoat and Sophia’s beehive hairstyle.
I believe the Mini was owned by the Cliffords, that rented out Ewhurst Manor to the various photographers of the time. The mini is in superb condition and the tax disc on it is dated April 1964. The only thing that could possibly make this shot better is if Sophia was naked! ;)
The platinum blonde Annette Johnson posing by the fireplace. Taken by Harrison Marks on the Cinderella set, this is actually a pretty good shot of Annette showing off her slender figure. I much prefer her during this stage of her career with long blonde hair. :)
Over the last few months, as well as continuing to edit my vast archive, I’ve also been playing around with colouring some of my original images. In the past I’ve avoided this as I’ve seen various attempts to do this with varying degrees of success. Most are either too skin toned in colour or end up having a painted effect and losing the details.
So after many years of using various tools to edit photo’s I gave it a go! The aim being to create a coloured version that looks as though it was originally taken in colour without losing the details. The above shot of Tina Graham is one of my better attempts, as for every successful coloured version (In my view!) I had about 8 failed versions. Some photos lend themselves to colour, whereas others have too much going on to get the colouring looking right.
I know some of you out there hate the idea of originals being coloured, and I totally get that. This is more of an experiment to see how close I can get to an authentic colour version. I have a small gallery of different models I’ve tried, and I sneaked a few onto the site in the last few weeks (guess which ones?)
So, what do you think? Success or fail, good or bad, and want more?
The stunning Margaret Nolan posing at the top of the stairs at Ewhurst Manor. From an original 10 by 8 print, this shows off Margaret’s legs and figure to perfection. Stood with her long black leather coat open, exposing that naked body, with just a hint of pussy on show! As the title says, what waits upstairs is sure worth it! ;)
I got a beautiful copy of Smooth Satin No.15 delivered today. Featuring the two girl special of Angela Duncan and Gerry Brown in 48 pages of them stripping on a bed. Fantastic little book, but as with other editions of this publication not the best quality and not that risqué! Plenty of stockings and boobs, but nothing showing down below, although Gerry looks to be wearing some crotchless panties, but her hand is always in the way!
Thanks to Rambooks for this fabulous copy and another bi-coloured cover :)
What’s not to like about this late 1950s colour glamour slide? Such a classical pose in fishnet stockings, pink corset and of course heels and a hat! The latest fashion and what every respectable woman needs to wear for her husband in the bedroom. :)
The classical June Palmer from a restored silver gelatin photo. A classic glamour pose as she sits effortlessly on a stool with her long sheer négligée open. Superb shot of her exposing her body and curves for the camera. :)
Taken by Harrison Marks in the late 1950s, is this not the perfect body? :)
