Here are four different dollies. You can make up your own minds as to which one you want to dream about.
For a frilly start, this is MOLLY McGREGOR of Edinburgh, a quite delicious example of a bonny Scot.
Next is housewife ANN CUNNINGHAM, caught behind the telly.
Next to her is CLEO SIMMONS, glamour girl of Essex.
Lastly SALLY SMITH, university student who is studying biology, history and music.
In fact, we don't know how to make a better finish than with DAWN GRAYSON. Dawn is still in the United States, still slaying the cowboys and the oilmen, but she looks as English as ever.
There was the floor to dean up after Uncle Perce had been. He's a chain- smoker and never uses an ash tray. He'd called on KIM WEST to talk to her about bringing him back a cane rocking chair when she went to Madeira, and he flung his cigarette ash all over the place.
So, Kim had to get down to some floor-sweeping.
Not having yet reached an age or a state where domesticity is utter bliss, Kim didn't exactly rush at it. But she looked ever so pretty when she was operative, don't you think?
A girl who likes travel is ANNA REINGOLD. She's been all over the place. If that sounds untidy it's not Anna's fault, it's ours.
A Continental herself, she's wandered around most of the European countries and seen the sights in most of the capitals. Now she's in England, and not just to have a look at London but at the countryside as well.
She likes to lose herself in villages and hamlets. Farmers' sons like it too, it gives them an opportunity to be helpful and follow up with an invitation to show Anna round the dairy. One young spark asked her if she'd like to help with the milking as the electrical contraption had broken down. Anna was willing but a mere beginner. The cow got huffy and went off in a sulk. But it was great fun for Anna.
If housewives ever did slop around looking like last night's night out and yesterday's throwaway, they don't look anything but ravishing today.
Like music, housewives have charm.
And they're better than all those free-thinking birds because they can look just as dishy while being a lot more socially responsible. Birds cook baked beans. Housewives cook cordon bleu.
Well, lovely apple pie at least.
Very much a picture of today is housewife JOYCE MATLOCK, who has longer legs than most dollies and a highly desirable aptitude for serving up lovely cooking. Not for all and sundry, however. Just her hubby.
When you’ve got through to the operator after spending a mad thirty minutes trying to get a straightforward number, have you ever wondered what she’s like? You hear her voice, golden and velvet and full of soothing solicitude, and you think my word, how can I blow my top when melody is ringing my eardrums?
“Is that the operator?”
“Yes. Can I help you?”
“I was on fire. I’m better now. When’s your night off?”
An absolutely delicious telephone operator is SUSANNE CHURCHILL of Brighton, Sussex. It’s not only a pleasure to listen to her telling you to hold the line, it’s an education.
Susanne likes fast cars and dress-designing. She designs and makes most of her own clothes, in fact. In addition, she’s a creamy, golden blonde and a joy to the ear of any man who works in an iron foundry or goes to football matches.
It’s not the first time we’ve featured gay JANE McKAY, who always turns up at regular intervals with a smile. Jane has something to smile about. She’s young, she’s pretty, she’s popular with the boys, and she’s earning lots of money as a shorthand-typist.
Always glamorous, Jane is proud of her trim figure, which looks good whether she’s wearing a sweater or a bolero. Jane works in the City of London and does the occasional pin-up modelling for us partly for the fun of it and partly for the pin money. The latter helps towards her wardrobe and her annual vacation.
Jane has lots of friends, gets lots of laughs out of life, and is really as lively as a porpoise. Maybe a porpoise can do more tricks in the water, but no porpoise looks as good!
Obviously, there's a touch of the mysterious east about CAROLE SEFTON, who hails from Bradford, where there's a lot of wool about.
That's nice about the wool. One needs it in the winter up there. One needs it all over in any winter. As for that lovely almond-eyed look of Carole's, the fact is her mother is Chinese and her father is English. Carole is eighteen right now and works for a mail order firm.
She's very athletic, likes a gymnasium and adores swimming. She's a flasher in the water which means she can go. She also has lovely teeth, very useful to bite any audacious wolves with. They have them in Bradford too, you know.
Carole represents the best of both parents which shows what can develop from a good mix.
Blonde dolly from Dorset is SAMANTHA BOND, with curvy vitalistics that add up to 37-24-37. Those inches constitute a shape that's dreamy in a bikini.
Samantha's also dreamy about travelling.
Faraway places are her idea of excitement and culture. Some girls only go overseas to soak up the sun and wiggle provocatively in the pools.
Samantha likes to see things and do things. New York, Sydney, Rome, Hawaii, Istanbul and Athens, she's thinking of them all and looking forward to seeing them all.
Now that summer is really here it’s warm enough for SUSAN DOUGLAS to model her summer weight lingerie, which makes her the coolest girl we know. This, of course, is recommended to be just the right weight to wear under a Courreges-style outfit. Slick, mod and unobtrusive. Lovely, in fact
A dolly is a bird both young and endearing.
Like ELAINE MASTERS.
Age, eighteen. Measurements, 36-23-35. Elevation, five feet five. Sum total, enchantment.
Interests, good books, pop music, Spain, France and London. Work, salesgirl. Ambitions, oh just a sports car and a horse. Spare time hobby, being a pin-up girl.
Effect, she makes this mixed-up world look as if it's got a future, after all.
Nothing pleases RACHAEL DAWSON more than outdoor activities, and we don't mean being chased over Bournemouth beach by adventurous young male visitors who want her autograph.
Rachael is a lover of outdoor sports like tennis, swimming, riding and netball. That's why she's so vital and glowing, and while you regard physical jerks as nutcases dedicated to getting musclebound, Rachael regards them as purely health-giving exercises that keep a girl fit enough to jump a five barred gate without any help from a horse.
Rachael is twenty-two, a green-eyed blonde who works as a typist, and whose sporting activities keep her curvy but trim at 36-22-36.
Northumbria was once an ancient and independent kingdom. Now it’s just the county of Northumberland.
But it still has its rivers and lakes and hills and dales and its hardy people and its flora and fauna.
It also has its blondes and its brunettes. The Northumbrian men are sort of tickled about that. Typical of the blondes who make the place look well worth a long stay for lovers of natural beauty is JACKIE BOLAM. Jackie is nineteen and measures 35-22-34. She’s a typist who likes best of all to browse around among the Northumbrian antique shops. That’s a change from spending all day Saturday listening to the Beatles.
And, we also have another typically fascinating Northumbrian brunette, JANET PAYNE. Janet is twenty-two. She likes swimming, she loves dancing and she’s dead keen on driving fast cars. She works in a departmental store and her statistics measure up to 36-24-36.
Fred let’s go up to Northumbria for the weekend.
Okay, said Fred, I’ll bring the wife too.
Let’s stay home, Fred.
They’re not just for show, after all. They’re not just to catch the eye. As the top pop disc illustrated, boots are made for walking.
Wearing this here pair is UTA LEVKA, as Continental as gateau or langouste. Black Boots, black mac and white stockings may have originated in King’s Road, Chelsea, but Uta thinks they’re just right in the Place de la Concorde. We asked her how many miles a day she walked in them their boots.
At which Uta raised her Continental eyebrows and said she used taxis to take her wherever she wanted to go. Otherwise, she said, her feet began to hurt.
The Madwick Hunt was in full cry after the red fox. The hounds swept by, followed by the riders.
No one took any notice of LAURA ST. JOHN except about ten men, most of whom nearly fell off their horses as they pulled up in stunned delight. But up popped a good-looking sailor who had either lost his ship or didn't know where the sea was.
“I saw her first," he said to the horsemen, "you lot go chase the fox, he went that way."
They all raised their headgear politely and went on their way, and the sailor had a chat with lovely Laura and then showed her over his ship, which he remembered he'd left lying around in Portsmouth Harbour. But Laura couldn't stay for a sailor's supper as she had to get home to hubby.
Laura is twenty three and is curvily tailored at 36-23-36. She fits a polka-dot bikini beautifully.
She doesn't look bad in a mini, either, does she? Her favourite sport is swimming. She lives on the South Coast and during the summer months takes full advantage of the sea.
