Look What We Found!
Now that the response to our search for new COVER GIRLS in BLACK SILK STOCKINGS has provided us with an ample selection to choose from, we have unanimously decided on SHARON WALTON to be our first cover girl uncovered in our search for beauty. Strange as it may seem, Sharon was born and raised just outside the front door of one of the largest movie studios in Hollywood. It appears to us that perhaps the talent scouts in Hollywood have been so busy searching for this type of beauty all over the world that they just haven't had the time to discover Sharon who has been growing up under their noses for the past 19 years. Nevertheless, Sharon hasn't really tried her luck at being discovered since she is biding her time at home with her father and mother. In submitting her photo to BLACK SILK STOCKINGS Sharon wanted to prove to herself that she had what it takes to be a Cover Girl. We would like to hear from our readers as to what they think of our selection in Sharon. Just by chance if any talent scout from Hollywood should see this issue of BLACK SILK STOCKINGS while they're traveling on the high seas aboard a slow boat to China looking for new beauty, please feel free to contact us and we will arrange for their introduction to Sharon, the girl who lives just outside their front office door.
Black Silk Stockings - Volume 1 No 7 (1959)
Talking of eye-catching Scots girls, HAZEL SHAW makes as pretty a picture as you could wish for.
Span No 177 - May 1969
Gad, the confusion.
And any moment there'd be a charabanc chockful of fellers going by, and every feller would have his eye glued not to LYNN REMMER'S chestnut-gold hairdo but to her pre-mini suspenders and her mum's stocking-tops. Well, her mum was the only close friend she knew who still wore stockings, and Lynn had borrowed a pair for her chum SANDY PULLAN too.
But pre-mini items all became confusion when Lynn got her skirt caught in the car door.
"Quick!" she begged Sandy.
"I'm doing my best," said Sandy, who wasn't, in fact. She was pushing instead of pulling, and the door stayed firmly shut on Lynn's skirt. And the postman was passing by.
"Nice," he said, looking at Lynn's stocking tops.
"No, go away, you cheeky thing," blushed Lynn, "and anyway, they're my mum's and she'd set the dog on you if she thought you were looking."
The postman had had some of the dog.
"Help," he said and hurried on his way.
And for the rest of the day, it was all sequestered calm for Lynn and Sandy, and they looked quite, quite charming.
Spick No 253 - December 1974
It wasn't going to cost anything except time, and that was going to be very well spent, so up trotted Fred to WANDA LIDDELL, latest pin-up favourite, and began to chat her up.
"I don't suppose you're all that interested in operations," he said, "but at my time of life-
"You don't look a day over eighty," said Wanda, who was spending the afternoon in Hampstead.
"Here, hold on," said Fred, "I'm not seventy yet, and I didn't have the stitches out till yesterday. It's me appendix, lasted me nearly a lifetime, it did, but it had to come out in the end. Gad, I must say you don't half look a treat, darling-
"Now watch it, audacious," said Wanda.
"Anyway, I don't want to bore you," " said Fred, "but l've got to have my arthritis removed tomorrow, and considering I only had me appendix stitches taken out yesterday-"
"Goodbye, you poor old soul," said Wanda.
"Do you have to go?" said Fred.
"Yes," said Wanda, "you are boring me.”
Well, it was that kind of a day, with the sun shining and all, So MARIE FITZGERALD wasn't letting it go to waste. She jumped into a car and drove into the country, where using walls and fences to perch on she arranged herself sunny side up. Marie is a Bournemouth girl and likes to get herself toasted, and if you prefer fried eggs, you must love food to the point where you're neurotic. Or perhaps some girl in your distant past broke your leg in a game of mixed hockey and you decided fried eggs were safer.
We've seen some eye-catching girls hitch-hiking on the road. But this was ridiculous. There we were, driving along, when we saw this car parked on the grass verge with Helen Williams posing in the door, looking our way. What did we do? Did we take no notice and drive past? Did we stop? Even if we hadn't stopped, our photographer would have jumped out anyway. As it was, we almost caused a traffic pile- up. "Hold it there!" our photographer shouted, running back to her along the side of the road. Obligingly, she went on posing. He started giving more instructions; now and then she tried to say something, but he kept thinking of new poses, taking more photographs.
After half an hour of this, she started getting edgy. haven't got all day", she said. Well, we're not the kind to ignore a hint like that, so straight away we started packing up the camera equipment, ready to leave. "No", she called, "Don't go - what about my car?" "Who wants to photograph a car?" we replied.
"You don't understand", she protested. "It's broken down. That's why I was posing like that so someone would stop and help." We blushed delicate pink. "Sorry", we said, "all we know how to repair is type-writers "And cameras", our photographer added. ". But if you go on posing like that, sooner or later, someone's bound to stop who knows how to help We didn't stay any longer. Our consciences were troubling us and, anyway, it's a terrible thing to see a lady in a temper.
Relax No 12 - Gold Star Publications 1967
"I don't see what's wrong with me being an expert on cars," Diane Weber told us. 'Some girls take up gardening as a hobby, the ones that talk about having green fingers. Me, well She held up her hands, stained with black grease and gave us a smile which made us class her straight away as the prettiest motor mechanic we'd ever met.
Later, when she'd restored her skin to its more natural creamy-white state, we persuaded her to stand posing by her car instead of lying under it. We thought our readers might want to see more of Diane than just a pair of feet...
She's an amateur rally enthusiast, uses the car for shopping in the town during the week, but at weekends you can see her taking it ploughing through mud and over hillsides, matched against men who may be stronger than she is, but have no less determination.
Doesn't she think it's un-feminine? "Nonsense," she said. "Un-feminine is just the sort of word men use to keep a girl in what they think is her place. They don't like the idea of a girl being better at something than they are. It's only because they're unsure of themselves. It scares them." You can't have it plainer than that! But despite all she says, Diane's the last person we'd describe as the pushy, dominant type. We might not be happy racing against her when she's in her car; but we assure you, when she's out of the driving seat, she's as charming as she is glamorous.

In the sunshine of a London Park SYLVAN COLLINS, secretary in a travel agency, deliciously illustrates that a pair of sheer nylons can still adorn a girl's legs, thank you very much.
Span No 212 - April 1972 Inside Back Cover
If you aren't quite sure whether MONIKA BUIKE is getting out of the car or getting into it, we aren't, either. And neither is Monika. Well, the German strasse was a little crowded, and it's an undeniably leggy business getting out of these modern cars. Or getting in.
Beautiful Britons No 106 - August 1964

Spick & Span Extra No 55 - Summer 1975
Up in this part of the Scottish Highlands there's a farm that wanders over countless acres, and if you're anywhere near watch out for Ferdinand.
RUTH CAVENDISH in the ankle boots and ANNE SCOTT in the high boots were near enough on this occasion to feel just a mite nervous. So much so that they hitched up their skirts to be all ready to vamoose if Ferdinand did appear.
And sure, enough a pair of inimical horns hove into view eventually and our two lovelies did not stand upon their going but went.
'"Hold on,' panted Ruth after a mile or so, "that's not Ferdinand, that's
Bessie."
"Oh, how sweet," said Anne.
Bessie, of course, is Ferdinand's lovable mate.
Span No 200 - April 1971
These three shots are all of lovely VERENA MAY, a starlet featured in German films, and who has a dark beauty not usually associated with fair Teutons. The hairstyle can change the look but not the girl.
Windswept on a swing is GISELA SCHUMANN, and snug in a chair is BARBARA BONGE.
