Janette Goodman

I'll String Along

It isn’t JANETTE GOODMAN who'd really have to string along—any guy with sense and discrimination would gladly tag. Who wouldn’t want to buy a girl like this a ticket for a dance!

Janette is one of our own favourite Scottish lassies and that Highland accent sounds in our ears like the tinkle of wee bells in the heather. If that gives you the impression we're a wee bitty softie, well so we are when we’re lyrical. We'll string along with Janette on the wings of a descriptive lullaby if we must.

Sally Dixon

Academic Form

Girl getting down to her university studies with dedicated intensity is SALLY DIXON.

With a natural built-in talent for learning, Sally is a student certain to get her degree. Her academic form is the joy of all the professors, especially when Sally is sitting in the front row during their lectures. There's nothing any conscientious professor likes better than a dedicated student who makes the lecture hall look as if it’s filled with light and beauty.

To help pay for her studies Sally does some part-time modelling, and it's no secret to say that London photographers regard her in their viewfinders with just as much aesthetic pleasure as the professors view her in the front row of the lecture hall.

Some students are very learned types.

Sally is very learned and very dishy.

Blue-stockings are out.

Josephine Peters

Jo

Short and sweet is the diminutive which her friends use for JOSEPHINE PETERS, long-legged London model. "Hi, Jo," is what you hear in the discotheques and Jo flashes her big-eyed smile and then, if she doesn't know who's addressing her, she steps on his foot and passes by.

But you can't blame any bloke for wanting to get to know her.

Heather Chaffey

Come Into The Garden

You'll have a long way to go to join HEATHER CHAFFEY in her garden. Heather lives in New South Wales, which is about 12,000 miles from London, but if you're an undivertible fanatic about gardens no amount of mileage could put you off, could it?

Heather, an Australian housewife, doesn't only have a colourful garden she also has a lovely kitchen equipped to ensure her Australian steaks emerge lushly sizzling.

You'd like an Australian steak, wouldn't you? You'll need one after going 12,000 miles. Then you could walk round Heather's garden and listen to the evening kookaburras.

And just as everything was getting harmonious Heather's husband would arrive home and conk you silly for treading on his Australian mimosa. Serve you right.

Spick No 189 - August 1968

Dolly Early

Dolly Early

That's the girl's name. How can we believe that? It's just too far out to be real. And looking at the girl who has the name, we think that she looks too good to be real, herself.

But let's stretch your imagination even further and tell you that not only is Dolly Early a real name and a real flesh-and-blood girl, but the maid's outfit is for real as well. Because Dolly works as a maid in the mansion of a famous pop star. This is a pretty easy job, really, because the pop star, like most pop stars, is very modest and doesn't own anything he really doesn't need. He only has five great Danes, twenty acres of landscaped gardens, three kitchens, ten bathrooms, twenty-five bedrooms nothing that isn't strictly necessary.

Dolly has to look after it all. But she enjoys it. She's a British girl (we almost said, maid in England) who drifted through a lot of jobs before she settled where she is now. At first, she wondered if she was really cut out for a maid's job. But they all assured her she was maid to measure.

So, there she is, waiting on the young pop musicians’ hand and foot. With a gorgeous girl like Dolly to carry out their every desire (well, almost every desire), we'd say they were doing pretty well. Or, perhaps, could we say that they've got it maid?

Mustang No 6 - 1968

Helen Zachary

Waiting For A Bus

There are several ways of waiting for a bus. All droopily with a loaded shopping bag, or shoving and pushing in a queue or, like HELEN ZACHARY, buoyantly and irresistibly.

The roaring No. 1A pulled up with a vibrating jerk that sent the clippie cannoning into the back window.

"Cor," said the driver.

"Oh, me ticket-punching equipment," gasped the clippie.

"Thanks for stopping," said Helen.

“I don't know how I'm going to start again," said the driver, "I'm all concertinaed.

When it comes to stopping the traffic, Helen, like all these vibrant London dollies, has it all wrapped up.

Mary Graham

Flower Girl

For a perfect combination, a vase of flowers and a pretty girl MARY GRAHAM takes some walloping.

Mary is a long-legged Scot, black of hair and brown of eye.

And that’s another combination—all adding up to as pretty a picture as you'll find outside of any art gallery.

Nina Swallow

Charm

Somewhere around Ealing in West London, there's a lot of charm walking about, and you can include NINA SWALLOW in that category. Walking around the shops and stores Nina adds up to a curvy eyecatcher and is in fact resident model for a firm of coat manufacturers. Her current ambition, naturally, is to become a top free-lance fashion model and if the charm of good looks counts at all, Nina can't miss.

Joyce Flaws

Curvy Scot

All Scots girls are bonny, of course, and this makes them naturally curvy. Included among curvy Scots you mustn't miss when you're photographing natural beauties up in the Highlands is Secretary JOYCE FLAWS, nineteen years old with vitalistics of 37-24-37.

Beautiful Britons No 166 - September 1969

Nicola Sieff

You Win

The fact is, if your name is NICOLA SIEFF and you look spectacularly curvy you can't lose. In other words, you've no chance of being a wallflower, and if your aim in life is to be proposed to you've no problem. Since Nicola hit London town last year a score of the nicest chaps have wanted to marry her, but Nicola says it's not for her until she's 25.

Span No 134 - October 1965

Antonie Merly and Renate Kleeman

Concentrate

It's not always easy to concentrate when getting out of a car. You have your mind on your shopping, but not your legs, and before you can say “Bother it,” you've got a run in your nylons. Still, if you look as pretty as ANTONIE MERLY when you're fixing the run it's quite a consolation. And if you look as fetching as RENATE KLEEMAN when you're perched on the bonnet you can go to anyone's head. Antonie and Renate are both from West Germany.

Span No 134 - October 1965

Nicola Taylor

Vision

When you're out and about you can often run into a shopping basket or pram, or even a brick wall if you're walking with your head down. We knew a feller who always kept his eyes to the ground in the hope of spotting a spare fiver. He finished up with his head jammed in a letter box. It's all eyes to the front whenever you meet a vision like NICOLA TAYLOR, and if you run into a brick wall it can only be because you've naturally gone all dizzy.
