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 very elegant looking Jean Spaul (Sporle) from Kamera No.4 P4 (1957) who not only posed nude for many of the early Kamera editions, but also got the job as one of the girls in the office at Harrison Marks studio. What an office stunner!
Not much you need to explain about this shot really as it speaks for itself, Angela Jones stood in GHM’s flat with her robe open showing everything, including a bit of stubble down below!
Another restored print from the Oxxbridge collection, but this time a Harrison Marks shot of Thelma laying on the leopardskin rug! This shot appears to have been taken in the late 1950s, as similar shots with the same rug appear in both Kamera No.4 (1957) and Kamera No.11 (1958), the latter featuring Thelma in colour on the cover and centre pages. Shots that appeared in Kamera and some that weren’t were also mass printed and sold as individual prints and postcards and sold (probably under the counter in plain brown paper bags!) to the discerning collector.

I’m currently going through a huge collection of early vintage glamour images and helping Oxxbridge Galleries to identify the models in them. As part of that deal they are kindly providing high resolution scans of some of the prints I’m interested in to share on this site. One small set of 8 images I helped identify was that of Nancy Roberts and the above shot is restored from one of those prints. In most of the shots Nancy is posing naked with a big smile of her face, a combination you don’t often see (Well the big smile anyway!), but regardless of the smile Nancy looks as stunning as ever and in this set she also seems to be wearing a huge set of bangles.
I also had contact from a new member today who remembers seeing Nancy in magazines and on TV back in his youth and wondered if I had any images of her? I sure do as you can see :)
Another appearance on this blog for Mary Millington, although unlike some of my other favourite models she can legitimately be here! Mary’s career is well known and documented, including one of her most famous and successful films ‘Come Play with Me’, filmed by non other than Harrison Marks. There are other links to Mary and GHM over her career, so I thought I’d share an image of her here, not the normal stuff rather a tasteful semi dressed shot, as the other stuff can come later.
Another titbit I’ve just found out whilst looking on the Mary Millington website. The fictitious ‘Bovington Manor’ in Come Play with Me was used by Harrison Marks to shoot scenes for his film, The Nine Ages of Nakedness in 1968 and eight years later to film Come Play with Me and it’s literally two miles down the road from where I live! Now a manor hotel it’s still open for business and a little piece of GHM history I didn’t realize was on my own doorstep!
A smoking hot shot of a very sophisticated, but nude Sylvana Manto (Madelaine Bannister) posing in long black gloves from the late 1950s.
A very sexy, sophisticated look with those long black gloves, earrings, and the cigarette holder. Although, the cigarette would be frowned upon today. Still, it’s a fabulous shot of Sylvana and her curves. :)
A cheeky rearview shot of Terry Peters kneeling on a rug in front of the fireplace at Ewhurst Manor. I just loved the composition of the shot with the way she was kneeling and looking over her shoulder. Kneel as she is with her bum resting on her heels gives it such a great shape and view I couldn’t resist. You will also notice as this is straight from the negative it’s not been retouched for publication, and we get to see more between her open legs than we would normally!
Another year has zipped past, and it’s been 2 years since I started this dedicated site to June Palmer and I can’t believe it! In those 2 years I’ve published over 580 images of June through-out her career and beyond, most of them original never before seen shots ranging from dressed shots of her early in her career to later nude shots in her 40s and beyond. The images I see of June continue to surprise and excite me, and I’m still coming across June content I never knew existed!
I have a few people to thank for their continued support of this site, as without them I’m sure it wouldn’t be as popular as it is. Firstly John W, whose dedication to June through his own huge June archive have helped make this site what it is, without his continued support I wouldn’t have seen or shared half the original June images on this site. Secondly, a big thanks to all the other fans and photographers that have shared their own images and memories of June, including Itsgardin, Re and others that wish to remain anonymous.
Finally, all that is left to say is thank you and I hope you all have a very Happy Christmas and New Year and I look forward to sharing more Just June with you in 2016.

Two shots of June from both front and rear as she poses in black sheer panties! Taken at Scotlee studio’s in the early 1970’s they seem to accompany this shot of June in white sheer panties taken at the same time. The pink psychedelic wallpaper makes another appearance as well :)
