Monika Busch - Almut Eggert - Jeannette Charrown

/

Trio

First of our trio, in fact, is blonde MONIKA BUSCH, a nineteen-year-old mannequin of Berlin. Monika was crowned Miss Berlin only this year, and although we aren't acquainted with too many Berlin beauties, we can't think the Berliners went wrong on this choice.

Next comes attractive ALMUT EGGERT, just twenty-one. Almut is a film actress from West Germany and just about the prettiest prospect they have lined up there for the cinemagoers.

Completing our Teutonic trio is JEANNETTE CHARROWN, at twenty just beginning to make a name for herself in Continental films. Needless to say, we can't wait to see Jeannette on our own screens, and any delay will add to our incentive to gnaw our fingers.

Karen Jenson - Mustang No 7

She's rich. Not just in money, but in talent as well.

She's daughter of a certain businessman who made his fortune manufacturing a certain brand of washing machine. We will refrain from telling you the name of the product for fear of being accused of giving free advertising. She paints abstract art and in two years made the jump from hanging her pictures in the open-air Hampstead art exhibition to being commissioned to paint portraits of some of England's most notable industrialists and politicians.

She calls herself Karen Jenson, but we suspect it's an assumed name; it wouldn't do to drop the real name of her respected family just anywhere, would it? She's planning to branch out into designing backdrops and stage sets for West End musicals. We doubt if she'd have much trouble there. With or without all her talent, one long, sultry look would soften up most theatre producers. Add a short skirt and a slow, knowing smile and even the hardest heart would melt.

Our pictures of Karen were taken at her own country home, where she gets away from it all on the rare occasions when she has time. Most days it's work, work, work. And most evenings it's play, play, play. There isn't much time for rest, rest, rest. You see, she may be a rich man's daughter, but she's not the kind to let it go to her head. She'd hate to laze around for month after month doing nothing (or so she tells us). She wants to go everywhere and try everything, at least once. And that's why she decided to model for our photographs. Inevitable, really-she's as good at that as she is at everything else. Like we said, a girl with talent.

QT - Concord Publications

I have at last put up a home page for QT, and am gradually making available a full collection of eBooks.

All information on the home page is from my own research, and reflects my opinions on the magazine – it does not claim to be 100% accurate. When looking into the history of some of these books, I am frequently amazed at how little information there is available; what information you do find - not unlike mine – has to be questioned for its accuracy. Most of the information I gather comes both from the books themselves and the thoughts and opinions of other collectors. So, as I frequently state, if you have more information or something to add, then please do contact me.

These eBooks have been scanned at a higher resolution and optimised to reduce their file size. This produces a good combination of quality verses size, and I am very pleased with the finished results. I am not going to wait until the full collection is complete before making them all available, but will add books in batches when complete. I do now have somebody helping with the copying, so hopefully the full collection will be available within a couple of months.

Margaret Stewart

Old Fashioned Girl

It isn't the way she looks that makes MARGARET STEWART old-fashioned - it's just the fact that like the heroine of that old-fashioned epic “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” Margaret would like to marry a millionaire. Well, that's as good an ambition as any for a lovely lady who wants to go places.

Margaret is twenty, was, born in Nottingham has dark brown hair and hazel eyes and stands 5' 4" in her nyloned feet.

Her vital statistics are 37"-24"-37".

She has studied nursing and has had training in dramatics, she likes classical music and modern jazz. Any bachelor millionaire wishing to mix his interests with Margaret's?

Elegance and Efficiency

Elegance and Efficiency

Combining these virtues is lovely PATRICIA GARLAND, secretary in the City of London.

Pat has just become interested in modelling and wants eventually to do TV commercials. We can think of no one more elegantly equipped for the job of convincing us we're not using the right shampoo to stop our hair falling out. Or enticing us to wash in a new kind of detergent.

Frankly, we aren't too bothered about never being alone with a certain brand, but what chance is there of being alone with Pat to persuade her we know just which box of chocolates she likes best? Isn't she a honey?

Watch out for TV advertisers being crafty enough to size up Pat as a hundred per cent prospect for selling you on every line that passes over your screens. How could you resist her without keeping your eyes shut-and with Pat in view how could you keep your eyes shut?

Dawn Williams

Up Came The Dawn

Nothing very much was happening down where the teddy bears occasionally have a picnic, except that the odd squirrel was cracking a nut.

Then up came the Dawn.

It must have been very early.

Well, it wasn't. It was lunchtime. And it happened to be DAWN WILLIAMS who came up. Looking very vital she was too. She's a London secretary and all secretaries are ever so vital. And very necessary.

Where would we be without them? Ah, if ever there was a good question, that's it. We knew a man who had an absolutely indispensable secretary, only she upset him one day by bringing him a broken biscuit with his tea. So, he sacked her. The whole place fell to pieces after she'd gone.

Can't imagine any boss being nutty enough to sack Dawn. Even if she had an off day with her shorthand, no man would want to get rid of a secretary who looks as dishy as Dawn. She's five feet five and measures 36"-23"-36".

And ever so vital.

Smashing, in fact.

Liz McEwen and Debora Stewart

Friends

Great friends are blonde LIZ McEWEN and brunette DEBORA STEWART" so when it came to fixing up a game of badminton in the garden it was only natural for them to go through with it in the friendliest way possible.

It's all a laugh to Liz and Debbie. It might have been a matter of grim, purposeful intent to two other girls whose only thought would have been to get on with the game and slaughter each other.

But Liz and Debbie play the game for the giggles and don't even bother to keep the score. Why don't they bother to keep the score?

“We can’t count," said Debbie.
