June Palmer & Inspector Maigret!

More June images from the great John W archive!  Not only does John provide me with the ‘normal’ (read topless/nude as normal) type of June image, but he has also provided me with some different from the norm images of June. These give an insight into the life of June Palmer outside of her modelling work and the following images fall into that category.

These images are of June Palmer in a blue traditional Spanish dress attending the Chelsea Wine Festival in 1962.  The first two are originals from John, but the last is common on the Internet, but obviously from the same event.

The most interesting image is probably the middle one where she is posing for an official photo at the Chelsea wine fair with Rupert Davies and Paul Carpenter, both renowned actors of the time.  Rupert Davies with his pipe was best known for his portrayal of ‘Maigret’ in the BBC series, which ran for 52 episodes between 1960 and 1963.

I suppose this could be classed as one of those ‘media’ events that today are so common and every actor or ‘star’ turns up for to be seen in the press.  Back then it seems to have had a little more class, especially if it involved JP!

On closer inspection the middle photo may also have been taken at a different time than the other two.  June seems to be wearing different white shoes and her hairstyle differs, but still worth keeping together.

Vivienne Warren & Ann Walker

A double feature! Vivienne Warren & Ann Walker posing against a window at Ewhurst Manor and it looks like very little editing was needed on AW’s pubic region, as it looks shaved to me!  Originally from an edition of Kamera and re-published in Magnificent Models No.1 by Nostalgia Publications.

Rachel Wells & The White Silk Dress (Original)

June Palmer as Rachel Wells (short dark wig) in a long white silk dress, taken in a hotel room on holiday, possibly Corsica again!  This comes from a set of 6 images and on looking, most of the images of JP as Rachel Wells seem to be on location somewhere warm or on holiday and taken on 120 film format by Arthur Howell.

June Palmer – Skin Against Sheepskin!

Another black and white original that comes from the same set as this shot of June posing nude on a sheepskin rug!  It’s a new week and I hadn’t published a shot featuring a sheepskin rug, so just had to do it!

All 3 shots from this set can be seen … Here

Liza Martelle

Liza Martelle (Dawn Grayson) – We know GHM had a propensity to give his models aliases when they modelled in wigs, such as Rita Landre (Pam Green) and Mary Stephan (Caroline Coon). What I didn’t know is that Dawn Grayson had one as well when modelling in the blonde wig above! Apparently she was known as Liza Martelle, a beautiful strip artist from the crazy horse in Paris.

GHM revealed this in an interview for Fiesta magazine in 1976 called ‘ Harrison Marks Rides Again!’.  He also said that she was in London for an appearance and due to his sheer charm and youthful sex appeal he was lucky enough to get her before his camera … and other places! 

Well I never! That’s the first time I have come across Liza Martelle and a photo similar to the one above appears with those comments.  So, unless there is another Liza Martelle or the photo was wrong, then it’s Dawn Grayson :)
