Maureen - Private Collection

Who’s been missing the lovely Maureen? Two superb shots of Maureen sitting on a coffee table, giving us a naughty eyeful. It’s just a pity the photographer was so focused on her legs that he left out her feet.

The final four pictures from the mystery model print set. Sadly, she still has no name, and I have no more pictures of her to post. I hope they have been fun and enjoyable. What we can say, though, is that whoever she is, she certainly is a very pretty girl. If you are interested in buying this set of 10 prints, please contact me.
A pretty blonde with what we were once allowed to call wolf-whistle appeal. The very antithesis of Vogue front page on the one hand and Sun PageThree on the other, ToCo books were born with her in mind. She was that ubiquitous doe-eyed, leggy sweetie from Number 74 Acacia Drive of just about any town in the UK.

As it won't be long before LYNN REMMER leaves college to take a job in the humming corridors of commerce, she thought she'd have a practice run round the offices of the firm which has promised her a lucrative nine-to fiver with prospects.
Lynn didn't actually do any work, she just wanted to make contact with the atmosphere, but her presence brightened up the files no end.
The general duties junior, Herbert, can hardly wait for her to take up her position as Mr. Mortimer's assistant sales secretary, which means that Lynn will have to watch Herbert.
Herbert will certainly be watching Lynn.
Span No 243 - November 1974
Another two pictures of our lovely mystery model, who is slowly becoming more daring with her poses.
Two more pictures of our favourite nurse, Paula. In the first picture, she looks straight at the camera, seemingly implying, "Do you like what you see? Would you like a little more?" Fantastic tease from Paula. Nurses in black stockings and suspenders surely must have been good for your health.
Two more pictures from this print set that I have, but we still don't have a name for her. More to come later in the month.
Julie Marsden is one of those tantalising models who are drop-dead gorgeous but made few appearances in Toco’s magazine. She had everything – a pretty face, lustrous hair, legs that go all the way up to the ladies’ lingerie department and that cheeky zing in her poses and body language that says, “so I’m sitting in the boot of a car and flashing my stocking tops and suspenders at you. Do you have a problem with this? ‘Cos I don’t”. So why only four appearances and a few orphaned photos hanging about? And why did she make three appearances in her first year (from her debut in BB112 in March 1965, Spick 139 in June of that same year and BB12 later in November) and then nothing for an entire decade until Span 250 in June 1975? I expect pictures that ToCo had in their files that were taken in the 60s.
Yorkshire bird GLORIA GENE is well in trim for what makes a feller turn his head, even if he's out with his wife.
Yup, Gloria is well in trim with vitalistics of 37-24-36, and those kind of inches mean curves that will stop the seaward traffic on any beach. Well, who wants to mess about with all that water when one can lie around and look at Gloria?
We couldn't get her on a beach because of the weather, but we did get her out of her Leeds office to shoot a couple of shots of her in the tea-room. How about that, then?
Span No 243 - November 1974
Having a quiet time at home, JULIA SEYMOUR was intrigued by the little parcel that dropped into her lap.
She opened it up. It contained items of dainty wear, which pleased her no end. How nice of someone to think of me, she thought. They all seemed exquisitely hers in size and appeal and she was just about to make them her very own when her sister came in and said some people have got a nerve, helping themselves to gift parcels which didn't belong to them.
"Oh, well, the thought of ownership was nice while it lasted," said Julia philosophically.
And there's always Christmas in the offing.
Spick No 262 - September 1975
While rooting through some folders on the computer, I discovered some scans I did some years ago of some small prints I had. Looking at them again, they all look quite amateur.
I know nothing more about them but will post the better ones here from time to time.
Nice little set of pictures of a lady messing about in the countryside, lifting her skirt and showing us her bottom and stockings. All good fun, I am sure that led to even more fun later.
Once again, while rummaging in a box, I found another nice little set of ten pictures. They kind of look familiar, but a name doesn’t come to mind. It would be good to give her a name if we can. I will post the others in due course.
A captivating candid shot captures Joan Russell stepping out of a car, her gaze fixed on something intriguing in the distance. Big thanks once again to Tocofan for this fantastic contribution!
