Skin, sun, and incredible curves - this nostalgic look at naturism in 1950s Britain is illustrated with rare photographs by Stephen Glass. Take an enthralling trip down mammary lane, where the problems of modern life were set aside in the seclusion of a naturist resort.

Many of the featured pictures were taken just outside London, between Watford and St. Albans, where there are four nudist camps, all of which have proved popular with photographers over the years. The book features well-known models such as Pamela Green and Lee Sothern.

Stephen Glass was born in Hungary to Jewish parents, and like his brother, with whom he shared a studio in London, he made a career as a photographer. In the 1940s and '50s, he specialised in photographing nudes for such magazines as Health and Efficiency and The Naturist. The models, June Palmer and Pamela Green both posed for him, and he frequently used Spielplatz nudist camp in Bricket Wood as a location.

Reviews for Nudist Camp Follies - Volume I: An Intimate Look at the Natural and Free Atmosphere in Sun Clubs

"""For anyone with an interest in naturist photography ...these books offer an excellent sample of the state of art in the late 1950s and 1960s. The cheerful illustrations ...and ...text complement the photos nicely."" -- H&E ""A visually delightful collection of ""nudist"" photographs... fans of old nudist magazines will likely recognize some of the photos, faces, and physiques, but will appreciate seeing them reproduced in higher quality than in decades past."" -- N, the Magazine of Naturist Living"
