More Maigret with June (Original)

Another shot of June at the Chelsea Wine Fair (1962) posing with Rupert Davies (Maigret) and his pipe! June is wearing the blue flamenco dress seen in other shots of her taken at the wine fair.
 
June looks radiant (even with clothes on!) and showing off a beautiful smile.

Vera Day – Corset & Clevage

Two simply stunning back stage shots of Vera Day wearing a great combination set of black corset, panties and stockings. My favourite is the top side shot of her playing with the frills of the corset, but also getting a great view of that cleavage pushed up by the corset. Two very classic and classy shots from the 1962 hardback book by Harrison Marks, simply title ‘Vera’.

Madeleine Mills – Kamera No.41 Cover

Madeleine Mills on the cover of Kamera No.41 (1962), where she also appeared in the colour centre pages. Madeleine only makes a brief appearance for Harrison Marks appearing in Kamera No.38 and No.41, along with the November page of the 1962 Kamera Calendar. She also appeared in one glamour movie ‘Miss Make Believe’, before she seems to have stopped modelling and reappeared as a TV actress, making appearances in Dr Who and as Sally in ‘On The Buses’.

June Palmer – The Elegance of Black & White

Continuing the theme of different June Palmer shots today, we have a none nude shot or dressed shot of June found on the Internet. In this shot we see June posing in a contrasting black dress and white coat, add in the white scarf and we have a very elegant young lady in a typical shot from the 1960’s. If only those around seeing this shot were to know June was more famous for not wearing her clothes, but shush we didn’t openly talk about such things back then!

Sometimes I forget what I’ve published as this shot was obviously taken at the same time as this shot of June in front of a Triumph car in 1963 – Doh!

She Keeps Popping Up, But Who Is She?

Another Harrison Marks model that pops up on a regular basis through out Kamera, but I have no idea who it is! Original thoughts were Jackie Salt or Rusty Gaynor, but on closer examination the figures and dates don’t match. This shot is from Kamera No.40 (1962), but she also appears in Kamera No.29 (1960) from the same set?

The Gypsy Girl

Princess Sonmar H’Arricks (Pamela Green) posing on the ‘Gypsy Set’ from the pages of Kamera No.40 (1962). I haven’t published a PSH image for a while, so about time I did and I love this shot. Covering your body from head to foot with black boot polish must have been a nightmare, but as with everything Pamela put her hand to it was done very well. It must have been a bugger to scrub off afterwards, but I’m sure she would have got plenty of offers of help 🙂

Avra Bennett – To Ride A Cock Horse

Avra Bennett sat astride a beautiful white horse from the pages of Kamera No.40 (1962). Avra appeared in Solo No.18, Kamera No.33, No.34, No.37, No.40, No.52 & No.66. She also appeared in the early glamour films ‘The Strip’ (Part 1 ) and ‘The Strip’ (Part 2), ‘After the Show’ and ‘Models Mechanics’ with Paula Page. She also appears in an outdoor set of photo’s with Paula, of which a couple appear in Kamera No.40.

The title is a reference to the nursery rhyme “Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross”, which also happens to be my home town.  The full rhyme (should you care) is:

Ride a cock-horse to Banbury Cross,
To see a fine lady upon a white horse;
With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes,
And she shall have music wherever she goes.

Jackie Parker – Kamera No.40

I’ve been staring at this images for weeks (apart from the obvious reasons to stare!) as the model looked so familiar, but I couldn’t put a name to the face and figure! Then yesterday whilst editing the Lorraine Burnett and JP set it came to me … It’s Jackie Parker!  

Now I’ve seen several sets where she has posed with Lorraine Burnett, but I didn’t know until now that she had actually posed for GHM and appeared in Kamera?  This is one of two shots of her that appear in Kamera No.40 (1962), but did she appear in any others? I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that she posed for GHM, as the models of that time seemed to have done the rounds with all the popular photographers.  What does surprise me is that there is no reference to her as modelling for GHM, but if these are the only two images he published then like me she may have been missed!
