A perky blonde named Gisa taken by Paul Pantha on location at some house in January 1967 from a set of contact sheets sent over by Kevin. This is another case of different names for different people, in this case both the model and the photographer.
The photographer Paul Panta is none other than Terry Sparks and Gisa is more well known as UK model Susan Shaw, with these shots of her being taken early in her career. If you go take a look at her over on VEF she went on to have a long and varied career, including appearances in Parade, Fiesta and Mayfair and plenty of Page 3 type work. She also had a foray into the more explicit and hardcore work as well as posing with James Hunt and appearing on numerous record covers!
Terry also went under the name Paul Pantha as a photographer when he worked for Russell Gay, before later using his own name. I have several other sets of contact sheets by Paul Pantha with more to come, but isn’t it sad that I recognised the photo’s as Terry’s work immediately, which he has since verified.
A beautiful shot of Susan posing on the doorstep in panties and a nice open toweling top, which must have been all the fashion back then as she has matching toweling swimsuit in other shots 🙂
Cute
Girl.
And, of course, she was famous for adorning TVR sportscars at various Motor Shows in the Seventies
Indeed she did! It seems several of Terry’s models went on to lay across bonnets in more than one way, as Venitia Day also posed at motor shows ?
Not January 1967 with that foliage around! I do like the pouty look though.
Good point, but only going on what Terry told me, so maybe later that year 🙂
Susan (Suzi) Shaw, of the expanding bust-line.
See the links, does make you wonder if its the same girl?
Driver, different models, different era’s same common name 🙂
Ah!…
Coincidentally, From some angles they could pass for one another facially.
