Nicola Taylor
/What Do You Fancy for Tea?
Oh, I just can’t decide. How about a takeaway and some fun and games on the sofa? Enough said!

Nicola on the sideboard, the back of the sofa. We see it all the time in ToCo pictures. The ones that really amuses me is when they are sat on top of the telly, not something that is possible nowadays.
Who wouldn’t, though, want a Nicola sat on the sideboard, black stockings, white knickers, white boots, and a short dress? Far better than just about anything else you might find on a sideboard normally.
Crossed suspenders were a Ken Howard signature look, and we’ve seen it in other models he photographed, including Marilyn Ward, with whom Nicola was close. These are two lovely bedroom pictures of Nicola taken after dark, with lights on and curtains open – neighbours, perhaps.
Some history about Ken Howard can be found here. I understand he’s still around, but now in his nineties, he won’t recognise or talk about his past.
That’s the name I have, but the name Dot Bailey doesn’t appear in my ToCo model data records. The pictures I have are verified to have come from ToCo, and the studio setting looks familiar. So, were these never published, or was another name used? I’m not sure. If more information can be shed on the origins of these pictures, that would be great.
She certainly looks very serious, and it’s difficult to tell if she’s enjoying herself. She certainly wouldn’t make my top 100, sorry Dot.
Two lovely pictures of Ingrid and Lowra posing in front of the Vauxhall. All dolled up in their white boots, tan tights, and wearing their knickers over the top of their tights, which was quite fashionable and more normal in the 1970s. Notice that the car number plate has been hidden with a blanket. Classic ToCo.
Angela looks simply wonderful in her clean and simple underwear, ready for the day ahead.
I like this set of pictures. I do think, though, it’s got a lot to do with the boots that Liz is wearing. Having spent some time cleaning these pictures up, you get to look at them more closely than you might otherwise do, and I do think that Liz is a good-looking woman. Having looked back through her gallery in more detail, she still does it for me, boots or not.
Heather, the gorgeous Miss Lovely Legs, looks absolutely stunning posing for her husband next to what I assume is their house. Lucky fella.

Nicola Taylor, all dolled up in her black stockings and wonderful white boots, relaxing in the front room. You don’t see many girls in white boots these days, which is a shame, I say. What do you think about white boots?
Maureen I believe made a living from her photo shoots. I’ve come across pictures of her everywhere, and she was certainly available for camera clubs and private shoots. She only appeared eight times in ToCo. She wasn’t afraid to remove her top and often wore slightly more revealing clothing. Maureen was undoubtedly very attractive and I’m sure a lot of fun to be around.
Jennifer Taylor, another one of my favourites, hails from Bristol, where I grew up. As ever, she looks fabulous in her play nurse’s uniform – black stockings and white heels. Jennifer was a frequent wearer of black stockings and white boots, never subtle, but very much sexy and exciting.
Jennifer always exuded a lot of fun and often dressed as the naughty schoolgirl or, like these pictures, as this sexy nurse. Wouldn’t you have loved to be told to take your medicine or face the consequences, all delivered in that lovely West Country accent?
Long-time friend of Nicola Taylor, with the two frequently being seen together. Two nice pictures of Joanna sitting in the shade; she certainly looks comfortable and happy posing for the camera.
Nicola is doing a bit of light housework in just her tights and a jumper. While I know many visitors to this site aren’t fans of tights, in the right circumstances, they can still be very sexy. These pictures of Nicola certainly show that. Who wouldn’t want Nicola Taylor doing a bit of cleaning in just tights and a jumper?
Jo Shrimpton only had one appearance in Span No. 227 (July 1973). I have 60 prints of her, all taken on the same day, I would suggest, but they only used a few of her, messing about with a hoover.
I do wonder why that was, as ToCo still had a few more years left at that time, and the prints I have are fantastic mini dresses, stockings, and white boots— what more could we ask for?
I will feature a few of them here, or if you want to see them all, just pop over to Brazenbooks, but remember they are reduced in quality and watermarked. What do you think of Jo?
Fabulous pictures of two popular models, Nicola Taylor and Marilyn Ward, messing about on the sand dunes. Perfectly dressed for a day on the beach. I have quite a few more of these sand dune pictures, which I will endeavour to get sorted for future posts if you would like.
