Darker Side

Nicola Taylor is undoubtedly a popular model with many ToCo fans. However, I’ve never been particularly drawn to her. Recently, I listed 125 original ToCo prints of her on the Brazen site. Many of these pictures have never been seen in the magazines.

I’ve always thought she has a fairly wholesome look, but I do wonder if she had a darker side. I would have loved to have taken her out for a day to get a real idea of what she was really like.

Throughout the month, I’ll be posting more pictures of Nicola. So, let’s have some opinions. What do you all think about Nicola? Who was she, and was that her real name? She was seen under a few different names, but always stayed within the confines of ToCo.

By my calculations, Nicola would be in her late 80s. She has brought much pleasure to many men, and perhaps a few women as well. Thank you, Nicola.

Ann Grainger

Dolly Day Dreams

I’m a big fan of Ann Grainger and would even go as far as to place her in my 10 ten of ToCo girls. There’s no denying that she did some rather peculiar things with Fullarton behind the camera. If you examine these pictures closely, they certainly appear quite strange, with Ann crouching over a doll’s pram and raising her skirt for the doll, all orchestrated by Fullarton. Ann has a remarkable ability to look directly at the camera. It’s said that she emigrated to Canada, and based on my rough calculations, she would be around 82 years old now. Great pictures from one of my favourite ToCo models.

Wild Girl

I like this collection of photographs of Alice Richmond. I’ve shared a few of them before, but these are from my recent acquisition of ToCo prints and were never published in the magazines. Alice, with her immaculate hair and makeup, looks stunning. However, her underwear appears disheveled, with her suspender belt pulled down well below her knickers. And what wonderful knickers they are—white and see-through, black stockings, boots, and a frilly underskirt. It’s an absolute delight!

Laddered Stockings

Tracey looks fabulous in her laddered stockings, fancy knickers, and negligee. Just imagine living across the road; you must have been able to see or at least get an idea of what was going on. No net curtains.

Black Underwear

Three great pictures of Melanie posing for us in her black underwear. My favourite of the three pictures is the one of her kneeling down. Scanned from ToCo original prints.

My Kind Of Secretary

Margaret Coates with her feet up on the desk, raising the temperature of the office with those wonderful nylon-clad legs.

Hayfield Delight

What would you give to spend a few hours frolicking in a hayfield with Julie Marsden? Great pictures scanned from original ToCo prints.

Two great pictures of Joan Glover relaxing in the bedroom. Scanned from original ToCo prints.

ToCo Original Prints

I’ve acquired over 1600 original ToCo prints from a reputable source. I have both popular and some less frequently seen models. If you’re a Nicola Taylor fan, then your luck is in. I’ll feature a few of them in the blog to mix things up a bit. 

All of them will be available for sale on the BrazenBooks site over the coming weeks. Link To Sales Pictures.

Six pictures below to kick things off. Angela Bond, Annette French, Heather Chaffey, Joanna Young, Julie Marsden, Valerie Peters.

Jane Rennie - Scanned Prints Set 2 

Four more scanned prints of Jane Rennie, all taken from the same sitting. She looks absolutely stunning, showing off her dark stockings and white underwear. I estimate that Jane would be around 80 years old now, and about 19 or 20 when these pictures were taken.

Jane Rennie - Scanned Prints Set 1

Four nice pictures of Jane Rennie scanned from original ToCo prints. 

Jane was always dressed to impress, with her hair always up and she was partial to a frilly underskirt. She was a real girly girl, in the best way possible. These pictures show her in a white, long cotton dress, but what really caught my eye was the poodle motif on her left breast pocket. Any suggestions on the poodle?

Jingle Bells

Should have really got this one up nearer to Christmas. Great pictures of Nicola tobogganing in her stockings and suspenders. I am sure any teenage boys’ delight certainly brings another dimension to tobogganing. Nothing like ToCo and there never will be, I am sure.

The tinkling sound of sleigh-bells on a lovely crisp night sound heavenly when heard from the warm comfort of a fireside where you're thawing out your frozen tootsies.

Jingle bells speak of such nights, of snow and slides and toboggans and muffled-up men selling hot chestnuts. In the pure light of a snowy day, you can see for yourself it's not all bells and chestnuts for NICOLA TAYLOR. Toboggans are apt to cannon off tree stumps and deposit you in snow drifts. It's a lot of fun only if you can keep all your discs in place.

Weighs and Means

When a girl steps onto a pair of scales and finds out she's half an ounce over the imperishable odds, it's enough to send her off into a swoon for a week. Antonie Merly means to keep half an ounce under!
