All aboard the Hard Day’s Night train.
Prue looked rather less pleased sitting next to Wilfred, than she did with John.
Category: Prue Bury and Swinging London
One of the first Mary Quant models, Prudence Bury was part of Swinging London at its beginning. Prue appeared with the Beatles in “A Hard Day’s Night” before Mary sent her to New York to introduce the miniskirt to America.
Twigs
Prue is my ultimate Sixties “English Posh Bird,” but the most famous British model of the era was Twiggy.
Twiggy made a guest appearance in my buddy Bismo’s all-time favorite movie, The Blues Brothers.
This Pratt is locked on Prue, but another guy named Pratt, named Guy, recently spoke with Twigs.
Names Without Faces
Kudos to Salon and/or Getty Images for getting Prue’s name right, but shame on them, because as presented at this link, the ladies have lost their pretty heads!
There, that’s better!
Y’know, Getty Images doesn’t really own the rights to many of the pictures they claim belong to them. They just slap on their name and call it their own. Getty didn’t specify the location where the photo was taken, but it was Twickenham Studios.
Happy Prue Day!
Today is Prue’s birthday, and I am hoping to arrange something very special for her. I’ve had a “Why didn’t I think of this before??” brainstorm.
Mary
There is something that I have promised to Prue, that’s long overdue, and I’m not quite ready to deliver. So I’m feeling very guilty about that, but Mary Quant’s passing requires me to contact Prue for a comment.
Snap-Happy Beatles
Prue says that Ringo was the “snap-happy” Beatle, taking pictures on the set of A Hard Day’s Night. He took this one of her.
That was in March, 1964. Until that month it was Paul who had been the shutterbug.
