June on Glass – Box 2, Plate No.2 (Original)

I’m slowly working through the scans of June from John taken from the photographic glass plates! This shot is the second plate from the box dated September 1960 and the description of June’s pose can be seen here. Again with these shots I also have a print of the same shot, but marked up with the cropped details (from Minimunster) and I will publish those anon.

Sylvana Manto or Madelaine Bannister?

So I’ve been seeing more and more shots of Sylvana Manto recently, so I did some digging around to see where else she appeared. In doing so I came across several early publications of Spick and Span featuring Madelaine Bannister, who on looking I am sure is the same person? Going under the name Sylvana she appeared in publications such as Fiesta, Kamera Special No.1 around 1957 and Kamera No.9 (1958)

If I were a betting man I’d say they were the same person and the Sylvana name was an alias made up by the likes of Harrison Marks or Russell Gay, but then most models didn’t use their real name at all so maybe both are? Can anyone add further proof Sylvana and Madeliane are one and the same?

Either way I’ve got some great original shots of her coming up!

Rosa Domaille & The Bed Spread!

Let’s start the morning with something a little more risqué than usual!

Rosa Domaille or as she was better known later in her career Eve Eden, giving us a full on view of herself! It was well known that early in her career Rosa posed for more than the odd pornographic/sleazy shot such as this one, but finding good copies of said images is a little harder! (pun intended). As her modelling and TV career took off later in the 1960’s I wonder if she regretted doing these type of shots? I have a few more to post, but not many I’m afraid.

June Palmer – Wet & Blue Too! (Original)

Another superb shot from the ‘Wet Blue Dress‘ series with June sat in a bath tub in a now very wet and hardly on blue dress. Edited and restored, but you can still see the water drops captured in this shot as they fall on June, yet her hair remains dry?

Christine Carter Strips!

A great shot of Christine Carter (Tina Graham) by Russell Gay from the 1950’s Glamour Book seductively peeling down her stockings. It’s definitely Christine/Tina as I have another shot of her by Russell Gay in the same wig.

Into Rita’s Boudoir

The sultry Rita Landre (Pamela Green) posing in her boudoir and looking very enticing in her fishnet stockings, garter and star choker. Similar shots of Pam as Rita appear in early editions of Kamera and would put this shot around the late 1950’s, somewhere around 1958/59? Thanks to Kevin for the original scan.
