Mrs Merton Never Looked This Good! (Original)

Denise Merton taken by Terry Sparks in November 1971 posing sat on the bed with a familiar floral shawl type thing. Now I say this a lot on this blog as my memory seems to get worse, but I’m sure I’ve seen Denise before somewhere, other than all the images I now have of her! A stunning model with a great figure and long flowing hair I’m sure she appeared in numerous publications, but I just can’t think where?

Another wonderful Terry’s treasure and if you’re wondering about the title, it’s a reference the the UK comedy show called The Mrs Merton Show, which was a mock talk show starring comediene Caroline Aherne as the elderly host Mrs Merton.

Bournemouth Never Looked So Good in the 80’s! (1981)

Another staple diet for me back in the 1980’s was the Paul Raymond publication Escort, which was always on my buy list each month, although not many copies survived!  

I loved how they published so called girls from major UK towns each month, all looking fabulously hot and willing to strip or drop their knickers for the camera. I liked to believe at the time they were actual girls from that town, but looking back now most were professional models. Such an example is the very ample Angel from Bournemouth, who willingly flashed her big tits and hairy pussy within the pages of the magazine, but is actually Jennifer Eccles. Jennifer went on later in her career to do far more than stripping in front of the camera, but stayed a favourite of mine even to today.

More happy memories from the 80’s!

Alison Wills – Mayfair Vol.16 No.11 (Nov 1981)

I published the cover of Mayfair Vol.16 No.11 featuring Alison before, but promised to post the rest of the article featuring much more of her, so here it is! And as you can see, she reveals much more than on the cover, but not as much as in some of her other adventures 🙂

June Palmer – Same Style, Different Hats! (1966)

Two shots of June Palmer on different magazine covers from the same photo shoot, but wearing different hats! The first is from Practical Photography (June 1966) and the second from the US publication Man Junior (November 1967). In both June is wearing a two piece white swimming costume and posing with a tulip in front of a 1950’s bull fighting poster, but wearing different hats.

The shoot obviously had a Spanish theme to it with the poster in the background and the two types of hats she is wearing, a Sombrero cordobés the smaller black hat and the more well known larger Sombrero. I prefer the first cover as it is just a standard photo of June, whereas the Man Junior cover looks to be lower quality giving it an almost painting feel to it.

Thanks to both John W and Paul from Firebird Records for the two different covers of June

When Danielle Met Gerry!

Two shots of Danielle Denese helping Gerry Brown get undressed taken by Terry Sparks Russell Gay. Danielle has the more classic white underwear and stockings, whereas Gerry has gone for something a little more daring and sexy with a sheer underwear set, although Danielle seems intent on seeing everything by removing Gerry’s underwear! These shots appeared in the 1960’s Glamour Book and unfortunately are the only two from this set that I have seen, but I’d love to have seen the full set and where this strip ended up?

Update: Thanks to Terry for letting us know it was him that took these fabulous shots not Russell Gay and that they taken in November 1968 at the flat of Danielle’s boyfriend. Always good to get some context around shots like these 🙂
