Happy Christmas & Thank You!

I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Christmas for the coming festivities and hope everyone has a relaxing break with family, as I plan to do!

Dawn Grayson from the first page of Kamera Winter Special (1967) – Yum!


I also wanted to thank everyone for the support they have shown to this site since it started in March and to the new Just June site.  Special thanks must go to John W, Simon, Phil, David, Alexei, Roop and everyone else for all their great contributions from original images and scans to the great comments and information that they impart – Thanks guys!

I’ll continue to update the sites over the Christmas period, but not as regularly as normal.

Happy Christmas and see you all in 2014!

Cheers,

Wonder

Xmas Cracker – Dawn Grayson (2)

A wonderful festive shot of Dawn Grayson as today’s Xmas Cracker, posing on the festive set again and looking as stunning as ever as she poses with the familiar fur coat.  This comes from the Kamera Winter Special (1967)

Rita Landre – The Fisherman’s Wife

I had one image from this set already published here, but I now have another five images plus this one from the set.  All have come from 35mm negatives and were in very poor condition and require a lot of TLC to get them to the quality of the one above.

I love this set of Rita (Pam) in short red leather skirt posing with a basket of fish, so I was really pleased to find the other shots.  They were obviously published through-out Kamera at some point, but no idea when?

I’ll publish the other shots once I’ve restored them.

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!

The first appearance of Vivienne Warren in the Kamera Calendar and my favourite shot of the first six months. Vivienne is the only model to appear twice in this years calendar and for a change Pamela Green in her many guises only appears once (excluding the cover)!
