Site Information

Vintage Stockings Archive

Those who visit this site frequently will possibly already be aware that I decided at the beginning of January to close it down. It had a steady flow of visitors, but not enough to make it a viable venture and I am sure that most regulars had downloaded all the images that they required; I think sometimes things have just had their time and come to a natural end.

I will, from time-to-time, still post pictures under the title of Vintage Stockings Archive. I do pay attention to the likes that a post gets, and will try to favour those types of images in the future where possible.

The Blog is popular; it now runs to 1,000’s of posts, but keeping it up to date with a post every day is taking its toll on me a bit. From March I will generally only be positing every other day. However, I am, surprisingly, running short of suitable pictures from the Vintage Stockings Archive that have not been posted all over the internet before, and that may prove popular here.

So, I am asking you all who follow this site to dig deep into those hard drives and volunteer a few pictures that we all might like to see and enjoy, because surely that’s what it’s all about. I know that they will get downloaded and reposted elsewhere - that’s how all the images got on to Vintage Stockings Archive in the first place. That is just the internet, and we have to accept it, but the pictures would still be seen here first. I am looking for pictures that are in keeping with the site, as well as being interesting and possibly not seen before; they ideally need to be of a reasonable quality if possible. I am happy to look at digital, prints and negatives if you have them. So please dig deep and share if you can - there is no point in letting it die with you, or your family finding it after you have gone and just chucking grandads smutty pictures away! I could tell a few tales from some of the people who contact me, but sadly that’s only the ones who see some worth and the funny side of it all. Far too much, I am afraid to say, just ends up in the rubbish.

I was recently contacted by a regular site visitor who was offering me some ToCo negatives, I think. If you are reading this, I did get back to you twice but have still not heard anything; I am still interested if you would like to get back in touch.

I still have plans to get the model galleries updated and have few more digital books to come soon - Spot On and Stag to name a couple. These may possibly not be the most popular of titles, but they are certainly in keeping with the site, as the intention is to keep it very much Pin-Up and glamour focused, with the ToCo books at its core.

I do have another project on the go at the moment, which I know will be of interest to some of you - I will announce details in a few weeks’ time. So, in the meantime, drill down into those hard drives and contact me if you have anything to say or would like to share.
