Dawn Grayson

Second Time Out

This is only the second time we've seen DAWN GRAYSON, but it makes no difference. We're out cold all right, just as we were when we met her the first time. It's exhilarating when you come to and realise how impressionable you still are.

Jean Aston

Victoriana Was Never Like This

Victoriana was bric-a-brac, red flannel and whacking great pieces of furniture. It still is. Only people collect it now instead of throwing it away.

Victoriana was music-hall.

The music-hall featured girls in funny tights and yards of lace, and sometimes male impersonators in top hats.

A girl like JEAN ASTON looks great in a top hat, but you couldn't include her in any Victorian set-up.

The top hat would have been approved but not the skimpy undies, they'd have locked her up and sent out for a dress that reached to her ankles.

Oh well, san fairy.

She's acceptable in this modern age. And she only sings and dances for amateur shows. There's always a rush to fill the seats, of course, a because a lovely amateur can be an audience's idea of sheer delight.

Ann Leslie

Bounce is Beautiful

Ah dear, when you're young what is more beautiful than bounce? All that youth and vitality, all that urge to jump around and dance about and look as irrepressible as ANN LESLIE. If you've got a pain in your tibia, it probably makes you wince just to look at Ann cavorting so uninhibitedly, in which case go and put a hot plaster on. And have a nice cup of cocoa.

Span No 182 - October 1969

Tiffany Trace

Tiffany

That's a name that's caught on lately.

It certainly suits a certain lively, lovely blonde dolly called TIFFANY TRACE.

Tiffany is a riding-school instructress and can teach even the most awkward-looking pupil to develop a graceful seat. She's nineteen, has green eyes and intends in due course to see the world-probably on horseback.

Besides being good with horses she can also paint and her main outdoor activity, aside from an exhilarating gallop, is archery.

If your only interest is going down to the corner shop for fish and chips, you'll be inert in five year’s time. Buy yourself a saddle and look for a horse.

Span No 200 - April 1971

Anne Montgomery

Cover Girl

This month's very decorative cover girl is model ANNE MONTGOMERY much-travelled girl who wants to travel even more. Every time she goes away, of course, it's a pleasure to welcome her back, but it's a dud world in between.

Beautiful Britons No 106 - August 1964

Linda Deane

Don't Go Away

If there's one thing, we couldn't stand at the moment it's having LINDA DEANE go away.

We're going through a bit of a grotty period just about now, like finding nothing in our little black box and gorgeous girls deciding there are better things in life than us.

If we woke up one morning and read in a newspaper that Linda, our favourite outdoor dolly-bird, had gone off to Greenland it would just about screw us into lacerated finitis. That's some kind of Latin for some kind of depressed fragility and there's no cure except a win on the pools.

Still, cheer up, eh? Linda's doing fine modelling in London and she's not likely to go away yet.

Unless she gets a win on the pools.

Fay Stevens

Sun In Her Eyes

Our cover girl this month is one of your favourite pin-ups from Kent, FAY STEVENS, here caught with the sun in her eyes.

A secretary with a bustling, progressive company in the City of London, Fay is all for progress but not for bustling. She likes to go through each day on a note of quiet confidence, as distinct from the more spectacular secretaries who sweep in and out like vibrant motor-mowers.

Fay's favourite sport is tennis, and though we don't know what her rating is as a singles player we're pretty sure she's in constant demand at mixed doubles. Who cares about winning all that much, anyway?

Sally Ann Scott

Cover Girl

Adorning our cover this month is beautiful London model SALLY ANN SCOTT, just right for boosting your morale if you're alone in a tent.

And if your tent is in the middle of the Nevada desert, you're really alone, and the only boost to do you the most good would be Sally Ann herself walking in on you with a jug of ice-cold fruit juice. Or maybe you don't drink?

You'd prefer a good book? As long as Sally Ann brought it in person? You'll be lucky, with all those public libraries available in Las Vegas.

Penny Baxter

Penny Wise

When you're young, life is a whizz, but PENNY BAXTER had a wise eye on her future when she recently went to study for a year in Florence. Penny's an artist.
