Diving With June Palmer (Original)

I’ve been scouring the archive’s for inspiration for my 500th post, but nothing jumped out until I saw these again.  I decided the post should be JP related, but wanted something different, so when I saw these it was decided!

June Palmer in the late 1960’s on holiday diving!  One with her in scuba gear preparing to dive and then two of her doing some nude snorkeling (my favourites!)  Apart from her great bum, the two underwater shots are fantastic and love the bubbles surrounding her on the last shot.  I’ve done very little to these shots apart from some minor colour adjustments and removing the odd blemish, but the quality on the underwater shots was amazing!

These were probably taken by Arthur Howell on holiday and again the best guess is Corsica as it seems to be a favourite holiday location.

So this was my 500th post since March when I started this blog, Wow! Thanks must go to all the contributors who have helped with the quality of this blog and the fantastic original photo’s that have been sent to me, including John W who provided the 3 images above and allowing me to share them!

Margaret Nolan – The Art Mistress (Video)

A nice little clip sent to me of Margaret Nolan doing a little strip (No nudity though!) from one of my contacts.  The clip is actually from the 1966 film ‘The Great St Trinian’s Train Robbery’, where Nolan played the ‘Art Mistress’ for the school, who had to revert to stripping when the school closed, due to fire!

Nice Little Clip of Margaret Nolan.

Enjoy!

Safe Shoes Prevent Purlers!

Another original June Palmer bit of memorabilia from John W*.  A British Safety Council poster featuring June Palmer. This is an old fax, sent from London to New York on 12th November 1966. I wonder if any of the original faxes survived?
 
For those that don’t want neck ache, the original text on the fax read:
(WITH AMS BUDGET STORY BY EDDY GILMORE)
(NY.20-Nov.  10)–WATCH YOUR PURLEY GAIT!–The British Safety Council is mailing 20,000 factories a poster featuring pretty model June Palmer in high heeled shoes taking a tumble and the slogan: Safe Shoes Prevent Purlers. Purler is Cockney slang for falling on your rear. The Council suggests that the posters be put up on factory bulletin boards as a warning that high heels cause falls.(APWirephoto by cable from London)

It seems The British Safety Council had a thing for using popular models of the time on their posters, as Dawn Grayson caused quite a stir when she appeared on a poster for eye protection.
I’m really pleased to be sharing this unique images, as I think it should be shared, but please where possible if you share elsewhere link back to this original.

Wendy James – On Location 66

Kamera on Location 66 was shot over 2 weeks on location at Bedruthan Beach, Cornwall in the early summer of 1966 (14th May – 28th May).  Harrison Marks used 8 models to pose on and around the beach, which was used because of it’s secluded nature due to poor access.  There were 4 models the first week, which included Teri Martine, Nicky Stevens, Alicen Warden & of course Wendy James
