Vintage Pulp | Dec 3 2016 |

Today we have assorted scans from an issue of Folies de Paris et de Hollywood published in 1964 with cover star Sally Douglas, a British actress who appeared in numerous films and who's popped up on Pulp Intl. a couple of times before, including, memorably, fronting the French magazine Evocations. Her film roles were often uncredited, and when she was acknowledged it was often in less-than-flattering terms. For example, in Doctor in Love she was “dancer in strip show,” and in Genghis Khan she was simply “concubine.” Probably the most cringeworthy of her credits was in A Study in Terror, in which she was “whore in pub.” It's a hell of a way to make a living, but between movies, television, and modeling she managed to become mildly famous and fondly remembered. Elsewhere in Folies de Paris et de Hollywood you get glamour models and burlesque performers, and they all add up to another visually pleasing slice of naughty nostalgia. We have many more of these in the website. Just click the keywords below and start scrolling.

Here are a few scans from the cover and interior of Folies de Paris et de Hollywood #174, which appeared in 1960. It’s a “numéro exceptionnel,” or special issue of the magazine, and is devoted secrets and spies. All that means is that the photo features are entitled things like “Paola Mystere,” and “Le Rendez-vous Secret.” You get the usual assortment of glamour models, including Sally Douglas, who we've featured before, and lots of showgirls. We bought twenty of these a while back but have been lazy about sharing them because, well, it’s really time intensive. We have to scan each page in two halves, which already amounts to twice the normal work, then Photoshop the pieces together, which is a whole new realm of effort. But we’ll get more issues up soon. In the meantime you can our previous shares by clicking here.

Continuing with the French pulp, below are a few images from the pages of the erotic magazine Evocations, a low rent monthly published during the 1950s and 1960s. Of course, even low rent French smut is done with style and restraint. At least during this period. And they used foreign models sometimes, in this case, Brit hottie Sally Dogulas, who graces the cover. The issue, number 60, doesn’t have a date, but we’re going to guess 1962.

British actress Sally Douglas, seen here in a promo shot taken during the filming of the James Bond spoof Carry On Spying, 1964. Oh, and this is the same woman as on the magazine cover above. It's like a magic trick where we make her clothes disappear, don't you think?
