Yorkshire Vista

Making the Yorkshire countryside look even better than it is, SHARON GALE is quite a vista all by herself.

Sharon has recently left college to enter the world of modelling and is finding lots of opportunities in the big cities of the north. It doesn't all happen in London and New York, you know. We're glad about that. It makes the whole world lively.

Sharon is a pop fan, of course, and also likes a good book as long as the story has a modern background.

Sally McGregor

Flower Arranging

Sally McGregor or Angela Perkins. Sally only appeared for ToCo four times, with three of those appearances under the name of Angela Perkins. These are great pictures, of which I have a few more that I hope to show over the next few weeks. These two pictures were never published in a magazine but were sold as prints.

Looking Your Way

What's your way, Claude?

Well, the way I like a girl to look is curvy. I mean, if she's all angles and straight lines, what sort of a look is that?

Geometrical?

I don't go in for that. What I like is a lovely pin-up, looking just the way PAT McGUIRE looks. Who could ask for anything sweeter?

Well, there's my Rosie Your Rosie would get on well with my grandmother- they're the same age.

 I'm a fan of Miss McGuire's. I'd carry her parasol for her if she'd let me. I mean, what a vision, what an adornment to the great outdoors, what a delight to my eyes.

Put your glasses on, then you'll like her even better.

Vanda Vane-Dotson

Sitting Pretty

Two nice pictures of Vanda relaxing in her black see-through négligée. Pictures from original prints.

Valetta - Private Collection

/

Sitting Pretty

Two more of Valetta from the private collection of negatives, with her giving us a very teasing glimpse of her stocking tops and petticoat. The cameraman was obviously excited by what he saw, as he managed to cut her feet off in both pictures.

Ruth Cavendish

Radiant Ruth

Another one from TocoFan. Great picture of a very smiley and relaxed-looking Ruth Cavendish. I am not sure if this picture was ever published, and to be honest, I have not checked. It's certainly worth showing.  

Where are you now, Ruth? By my reckoning, you would be 77, still smiling and laughing, I hope.

Sandra Sonning

Dolly Bird

Dolly birds come in all colours and some wear feathers too. SANDRA SONNING lights up as a vivacious redhead, and with or without feathers comes under the category of what someone's grandfather calls a "corking eyeful of Chelsea architecture M to Z." Sandra is nineteen, works full-time as a secretary and part-time as a model.

BrazenBooks News and Other Bits

At last, I have the first offering of eBooks available from BrazeneBooks as a linked site to BrazenBooks. It has its own standalone domain and can be found here. There are only 30 titles available at this point, but more will be added on a regular basis. Most of the content will be much more adult and specialised in comparison to the glamour and pin-up books available here, and I am starting with a very varied selection of bondage and fetish titles from the 1970s and '80s. It is all new product that I have been scanning over the last few years, and there is a lot more to come, including some very rare and hard-to-find magazines. I am also excited to be able to offer film downloads in the future, which I can't do here due to file size restrictions, so keep an eye out for those.

Unfortunately, the process of payment and obtaining your download link is not quite as smooth and automated as I would like, so if you are a regular purchaser of eBooks here, please take a moment or two to familiarise yourself with that process. It works well; I have tested it many times.

So, if the more exotic interests you, take a look at the new site and see if anything grabs your interest. www.brazenebooks.co.uk

Glamour and Pin-Up Book Sales

All new tangible glamour and pin-up books will now only be listed for sale on BrazenBooks, but all ToCo and similar eBooks will stay here for the foreseeable future. I will do my best to draw your attention to any new additions that might be of interest to visitors here.

ToCo Collection

I have been very lucky to recently purchase a full collection of ToCo books, so at the moment I have most numbers available. Unfortunately, it will be some time before I am able to start listing them for sale, but if you are after a few hard-to-find numbers, then now might be a good time to contact me with your lists. If you are very quick off the mark, then the full set could be available.

I Say, Miss

Salesgirl SANDRA NORVIC of Middlesex heard the call behind her.
"I say, miss!"
"Yes?" smiled Sandra over her shoulder.
Up came Jonathan Burntwhistle, a gay old geezer of sixty or so.
"Er—I thought you ought to know-um-that your dress—I say, it's hot, ain't it?" He dabbed his russet forehead.
"What's bothering you?" smiled Sandra, the sweetest 18-year-old dolly anyone could wish to meet by an old mill stream.
"Ah—er—you're all hooked up," said Mr. Burntwhistle.
"Oh, dear," blushed Sandra, "how embarrassing." "I ain't exactly embarrassed," he coughed, "in fact, I ain't seen such a nice pair of black silk knickers since Dora Tippledown fell off the swings in nineteen hundred and twelve."
"How sweet of you to notice," smiled Sandra and patted him on the head and sent him on his way.

Strip Poker

Another random picture from the internet, and I have no idea of its origins, but I like it. Five girls are playing what I guess is supposed to be strip poker. When looking at pictures, I often try to think about the moment the picture was taken, and this one must have been quite a lot of fun, I am sure. If anybody knows more about it, then it would be good to hear from you directly or via a quick comment.

Tight Squeeze For Nicola

These two pictures were featured in Span No. 243, during the twilight of ToCo’s run. They were probably taken much earlier, as they were certainly in the business of regurgitating pictures at this time that had not been used from earlier sets. 

There is no mumbo jumbo attached to them; they were just being used to advertise the sale of prints and to fill space. 

Nicola is clearly wearing tights with her knickers over the top, which was more common when tights were starting to become more popular.

P.T. Pet

It's nice to be in Wales now, bach. Nice and invigorating. Well, it is at a certain summer school where the physical training instructor happens to be JAN WARNER, gymslip and all.
But fellers who roll up thinking what a dish don't half get the palsied vertigo-colloquial language for the shakes when she gets them hooted and booted into their first P.T. session of the day, which happens to be well before breakfast.
It's all strictly tutorial with Jan. She's only got one thought as far as the male students are concerned, and that's to lick them all into a decent shape.
What a pet.
We took these pin-up pics of her just to let you see what lovely legs she's got and that she's in utterly enchanting shape herself.

Beach Party!

Two more odd and unpublished pictures of Joan Glover. All are very ToCo bizarre again, with Joan dressed in shorts, a bikini top, and, of course, white heels, while balancing on a fallen tree somewhere in the countryside with a beach ball. All it really needs now is a herd of cows in the background. Many thanks again to tocofan for this contribution.
