Lorraine Burnett as the QT Beauty from the centre pages of QT No.13 by Russell Gay. Strategically placed bow and long blond hair covering the essential bits!
Anyone have a date for this magazine, or any of the other QT magazines, as they don’t seem to have publication dates in them?
For dating issues of QT our Rosetta stone is an advert on page 13 of QT#24 for a 1960 pin-up calendar. I think that must date this issue to December 1959, give or take a month. I think we can also assume that QT came out every month as there were annual subscriptions on offer. Under these assumptions, QT#01 is dated to January 1958, and your QT#13 to January 1959.
I like your logic on that Portland and I always find it better to get a date rather than late 1950's, as that always sounds so hit and miss, but better than nothing sometimes!
Adding weight to your theory. Eileen Sheridan is on the back inside cover of QT No.13 and she shot to fame in 1958 after becoming Miss United Kingdom, so 1959 would align to this as well
she hadn't perfected her pout yet, showing off her nicely gappy teeth here<br /><br /> roop
The pout was probably partly due to the gappy teeth, a pout rather than show the teeth!
