Sophia’s Lovely Castanets (Original)

I recently won a set of 20 slides of Sophia Dawn over on eBay and this is the first scan of those slides. Of the 20 slides there are 4 different themes, but all seen to be taken at the same session. This shot is from a Spanish themed set of 8 slides that feature a topless Sophia Dawn in yellow Flamenco dress and colourful bead necklace. Most of the slides are close up shots similar to this, with the odd full length shot, but the quality of all is excellent for their age, with very little restoration required.

It wasn’t until I saw this set that I realized that Sophia looked very much like an ex girlfriend of mine, both facially (without the beauty spot) and in her frame and boobs. Loving the green eye make-up and dark eye liner, which all adds to the look of this shot.

Nancy Roberts – Just a Sun Hat For Shade! (1959)

I try to keep the posts and images on this site relevant to the area I’m interested in around Harrison Marks, Russell Gay and their publications, but sometimes I get sent or find shots that push those boundaries. I try and find links between the models and photographers or locations, but sometimes a shot or model doesn’t fall into those categories, but is too good not to post. I also have a number of favourite 1970’s models that don’t meet the same criteria and in the past I have posted shots of them on my other blog over on ‘Daysgonebyporn‘, but keeping several sites going takes time and effort of which I’m finding I have less and less.

Therefore I’m going to push the boundaries of what I post on this site (which is by far the most popular) and if you indulge me post a few none related posts and models. The vast majority will still be related to the main topic on the site, but you can expect the odd unrelated model or image going forward, for which I make no apology 🙂 Most of the shots will still be originals and of the quality you would expect, just more variety.

A good example is the shot above. A stunning shot of Nancy Roberts posing on a beach with only a sun hat for shade. It comes from a photographic glass plate and was taken in September, 1959 at the beach near Sheplegh Court, Devon and the accompanying notes put Nancy at 20 years old in the shot. What a body and what a smile and thankfully I have several others of Nancy at the beach to share along with this 🙂

Enjoy the very enjoyable diversion and let me know what you think about expanding the scope of the site a little?

Oh Là Là! A Sexy June in Silver (Original)

June posing in the studio wearing a one piece silver bathing suit and high heels, with a backdrop of French tourism posters. I’ve no idea why the posters were there or if it was a shoot for an advert, but even dressed June looks as sexy as hell!

June Palmer – Tiptoe Through The Treetops! (Original)

A nude June posing precariously amongst the branches of a tree on her tip toes! A fantastic view of June’s body as always, I’m just not sure about the balancing act, although I don’t think the branch she’s stood on is attached to the tree but laid on the ground.

Valerie Williams – Waiting For Your Call!

A late 1950’s shot of Valerie Williams posing nude on the edge of a chair with and old fashioned white telephone on the table beside her. Great  shot of Valerie’s figure and a very nice old fashioned phone, if you like those sort of things 🙂

Veronica’s View (Original)

The second of two shots from original negatives I own of Veronica Diemen from the 1971 Harrison Marks glamour film ‘Tailor Made’. I had no idea when I published the first image here who the model was, because at first glance it wasn’t obvious that it was Veronica. Thanks to new member Arty he pointed out it could in fact be Veronica Diemen in the film and images, which is a fantastic find and spot, so thanks Arty! To back this up and prove it is in fact Veronica, you will see that she has a scar on her right hand side that she is partially covering with her hand. If you look at any of the other published shots of Veronica throughout her career, you will always see that she either uses her hand to cover the scar or wears belts or other accessories to cover it, not obvious unless you look.

So another model identified that worked with GHM on one of his glamour films and a good excuse for me to dig out some more Veronica Diemen shots to post on this blog thanks to the link to Harrison Marks, not that I need an excuse!

June Palmer – Red & Rude, Part 2 (Original)

The second and final shot I have from John of June from the 1970’s on the floor in red stockings. The first shot I posted here is more revealing, but this one is equally as good in it’s own right. I’m sure there must be many more shots from this set out there, but I’ve yet to see any, which is a shame 🙂
