Help : Old Electric Blue Films

Hi

Around the mid eighties, during my formative years, I remember a lot of Electric Blue videos being in my local Variety Video shop (remember those ?) on the 'top' shelf. One in particular stood out due to the extremely sexy woman on the front cover. She had shortish, curly (I think) hair, slim with a head band and had a towel pulled across her shoulder and over her front on each side by each hand, facing side on so as to hide her boobs with the towel (difficult to explain although I can picture her). She looked like she'd been doing either aerobics or tennis or something like that (in the nude obviously *lol*). I cant remember which volume it was, but it was an early one somewhere between Vol 1 and Vol 10. Vol 6 seems to stick in my mind but I cant be 100% sure.

Anyway, what I'm really posting about is I'm trying to find a scan of the cover of this video and wondered if there are any sites out there that specialise in old, ie: very early Electric Blue videos or mid eighties British porn. I would really like an image of the cover photo to keep forever (nostalgia eh ?) and perhaps find out who this model was.

Its one of those things that sticks in my mind from my late teens and I'd really like to see the cover again and find out who this model was that gave me so much 'wood' in my youth. :))

Any help would be gratefully received.

Cheers

Accylad

I wouldn't be surprised if the blonde was Ginger Lynn.

A man after my own heart....
The film is question comes from 1982...
It is numbered 009,the scene is called THE SAUNA,and the girls JENNIE/TESSA/VICKI (well,on the box cover,but not in real life).
...drop me an e-mail and see the box cover!
No,I don't have the film (I did once)but only the press hand out leaflet that I received at the time.
Keep an eye open for it at boot fairs-if the wife is around,it will come under plain cover.

A tatty second hand shop in town I often frequent for cheap priced vinyl singles has several of these tapes in Betamax form. We all know the content is softcore, but is it worth picking them up for a possible investment? I see these tapes regularly but not the VERY early ones. These Betamax tapes are the VERY early ones.

I missed an ironical ';-)'
or do people still have betamax machines? Old technology might be worth a bit in a few more years. I've got a yamaha DX7 synthesizer(mark 1) - how's about that for an old dinosaur!
But really, Electric blue must be only interesting as a piece of history, just like the film 'Come Play With Me' which I've seen - it is really an appalling film, the appearance of the girls lightens the mood but the lack of comedy (sorry , was this supposed to be funny?) really produces a squirm inducing pile of crap. In the Electric Blue series I think I saw on satellite a 1993 ambient sound tracked video with Julie Strain - the visuals were mostly in arty slowmotion - was that ahead of it's time?

Reminds me of when I saw the promotional pics for the 'David Galaxy Affair' in 1979-80, I was cocked and loaded and couldn't wait to see it.............you can guess the rest!
