Was going through my collection and came across these photos that I purchased from you in 1991-92 through Jayne Mansfield's fan club, Simply Divoon!I remember that at the same time Siouxsie & The Banshees released a single called, "Kiss Them For Me" about Jayne! Was born in 1965, so I missed her heyday so to speak. Jayne was in Germany shortly before she died playing for troops in a club and my uncle was stationed there! Have 1 pic and Jayne is sitting in his lap, and I have 1 he took. I grew up with these photos. it's like they are part of me. Was always a Siouxsie & The Banshees fan all through the 80's and in 1991 they released an album called Superstition based around Mansfield and the song "Kiss Them For Me". A friend got me the info on her fan club Simply Divoon and I joined. It just kinda happened that the album was released as I got the photos you took Bill. Fantastic, I love them all. They were well worth it and glad I still have them very much! Great work you did! Also remember taping something off of Extra, or ET with The Banshees video for "Kiss Them For Me", and Jayne is at the beginning as the song is playing. The actual video release does not have Jane in it! Superstition is well worth it for the song: "On The Road To New Orleans- A Spray Of Stars Hit The Screen- As The tenh Impact Shimmered The Forbidden Candles Gleamed Oh Oh"- Nothing Or No one Will Ever Make Me let You Down- Kiss Them For Me- I may Find Myself Delayed". If you are a Jayne fan get this album! There is a Snapper mix and Jayne is featured on it, in the beginning and the middle of the mix! Love the pics Bill, RIP.

Bill, working through major distractions with that old Mamiya truck establishes you as a great photographer! You must have had a lot of fun on the set and also a lot of pressure to perform.

Finally! Now I know who Jayne is. I've been seeing all of these images and wondering who is Jayne. I couldn't tell if they were old photos or made to look old. You do good work. I bet you've got some good stories too. What other celebrities have you worked with?

Was there any plastic surgery at the time Bill? If not she sure was blessed...and so were you. You got some memories in the old trunk.

I was such a Jayne mansfield fan. Right after I got out of High school when she was in her prime. her and Gina L I thought were the greatest. Must have been great working with her. jimc
