Jeanette Bonner

Domestic Glamour

Housewife from the Garden of Kent is JEANETTE BONNER and just about one of the nicest glamour girls we know.

These pretty pictures were taken by Jeanette's husband, Peter, an enthusiastic amateur photographer whose favourite pin-up model is, naturally, Jeanette herself.

You can take it from us that Jeanette is also a good cook. If you've got glamour in the lounge and efficiency in the kitchen you're sitting pretty.

We can't think of anything more conducive to marital bliss than a perfect apple pie served by perfectly pretty wife. You might perhaps consider you could go one better by having champagne in an iced bucket served by your missus in white leotard and black tights, but our money is on Jeanette and her apple pie.

We've featured domestic glamour on many occasions before because it has its own unique appeal, and because we're sold on apple pie ourselves and this particularly cute cook! - we hope to bring you more of Jeanette in and around her Kentish home. Pass the custard, Maud.

Anne Duke

How To Keep Our Friends

How To Keep Our Friends

That's if we've got any friends. Some reader wrote us the most unfriendly letter, so we're not sure if anybody loves us at the moment. Still, there was one awfully decent bloke who wrote us about ANNE DUKE and said what a divine creature she was and that he'd love us for ever if we'd only feature her more and more and more. Naturally, if we've got one friend, we'd like to keep him. Anne was very cordial about it all and said she’s tickled to death to be photographed again. No, no, we said, the pleasure will be all ours. After all, let's face it. Anyone on the viewing end of the camera and getting those long, lovely legs in focus can hardly be said to be suffering. You know Anne is a Welsh beauty queen, of course? If you don't, that means you only look at the pictures and don't read the print. Try and persevere. The print isn't as scintillating as the pictures, but it's more educational.

Letter of the Month

Please can we have a little more variety? I don't mean I want to see photographs of shrimp boats or cattle markets, I mean I want you to range far and wide and bring us glamorous pictures of glamorous beauties from everywhere. When do you ever feature Chinese girls? Never. When have you ever featured Indian girls? Never. Have you ever found us a beautiful young thing from Indonesia? No. The Indonesian girls are particularly lovely. I should know. I've been there. Have you been there? You can't have or you'd know what we're missing. I don't think you try hard enough. I think you just sit around and take what comes. I think you're going off, in fact. I can see all the mini-skirted London dollies I like, I live there, and so do thousands of other readers. Shake yourself, please. You can do it. You've only got to start working.

D. B. FRANCIS - Kennington, S.E.11.

What about Mongolian dollies? Just say the word and we'll flip off there and probably never come back. So there.

Lee Sothern (Grace Jackson)

Lee Sothern - Modern Life - 1968

When glamorous Lee Sothern appeared in the first issue of Modern Life, your editors were certain they had an outstanding personality on their hands. But little did they know that Modern Life fans would acclaim her in such numbers. Consequently, to quiet the clamour for more of Lee Sothern. we hurriedly contacted her for more photographs. And so, dear reader, just for you, are more poses of the glamor girl of the month. Although Lee appears in black and white on these pages, let your imagination picture the way she would look if you saw her in person. Her outfit is rubber all rubber. Her blouse is red, a vivid brilliant red and her pants are black, jet black. The pants are skin tight and cling and mould to every curve of her body. Her blouse is comparatively loose and is constructed to allow freedom for breathing and motion. The outfit was designed for her Cat Girl role

Svelte and sophisticated, Lee Sothern, popular English television star, demonstrates the flexibility of her Cat Girl costume for Modern Life fans. No matter how she moves, the rubber outfit stretches, does not restrict her movement, and yet hug tightly to her long, glamorous legs. The blouse is also constructed in such way So that she has freedom to expand her chest as much as she desires without restriction. It is easy to predict that with what Lee has to offer, she will go a long way in TV and in the movies.

Jenny Piece

Smitten By A Sec

Fred was just holding a horse while Joe went to fetch a saddle when JENNY PIECE of Worcester came through the gate. Fred felt as if he'd been struck by lightning, and if he hadn't been holding onto the horse he'd have fallen down.

Jenny, a secretary, was wearing polished boots, brief mini and a devastatingly floppy hat. She asked Fred if he had a spare horse around.

"Believe me," said Fred hoarsely, "you only need to ask, and you can have the whole string.” "What are you all flushed about?" asked Jenny, looking traumatically bewitching under her hat. "It's not hot, is it?"

"Don't let's talk about me,' said Fred faintly, "let's find you a spare horse and then we can have a long chat about your phone number. Of course, if you're going riding, I'll come with you, I'll just fade away if I don't."

"No, I'm not going riding," said Jenny, "I just happen to have a lump of sugar and if you've got a spare horse that's not doing anything can i feed him.' So, she did, but the place has never been the same for Fred since she left.

Britt Hampshire

Up From The Country

Born in Hampshire, BRITT HAMPSHIRE is well-named. Britt came up from the country last year and has been happily earning a living a as a model in the big merry-go-round of London.

Country girls have lovely complexions. Britt looks like a dairymaid fresh from helping the farmer gather his corn. That doesn't mean her conversation is restricted to agriculture or how to spray fruit trees. She can converse on the most abstract subjects, reducing the listener to a mesmerised admiration of her voice and her blue eyes.

In view of man's infatuated helplessness in the presence of beauty, it's easy to understand why Helen of Troy launched a thousand ships.

Sara Stuart

Eye-Catching Deb

Coming out with the rest of this year's high society girls might have made SARA STUART a little remote from us. But Sara is essentially a friendly girl, enchanted by all that keeps a philosopher down on the ground and a sputnik up in the air. Life is the keynote of Sara's interest in each day as it arrives, she loves the Beatles and is mad about Sir Malcolm Sargent. Also, she's one of the most eye-catching gals in the place.
