Princess Sonmar H'Arricks - A Profile View

No comments:

A beautiful side profile shot of Princess Sonmar H'Arricks (Pamela Green) from the pages of Kamera No.17 (1959). God knows how long it took her to 'black up' for these shots, I only hope she shot loads of sets in one session to make it worth while!

Dawn Grayson - Kitchen Capers!

Dawn Grayson nude in the kitchen and posing for Ed Alexander for his book of English Beauties (1964). As Ed himself says, when photographing the nude indoors, a change from plain studio backgrounds can sometimes be made by using the average home as a setting, as long as the setting doesn't detract away from the model.  Trust me, my eyes are firmly focussed on the model here!

Eileen Sheridan - QT No.13

Eileen Sheridan from the inside back cover of QT No.13 (1959?). 

The interesting fact about Eileen is she was the first winner of the Miss United Kingdom title in 1958. So if the timelines are correct, she did this either just before or just after winning the title, I wonder if they knew! She also won the Miss Great Britain title in 1960 and was also known for her association with the London underworld 'firm' headed by the Kray twins. A very colourful early career indeed!
