Stocking Parade

A little photo-feature from Stocking Parade, dating from 1965, featuring Wilma Evans. There were loads of  publications like this in the 1950s/1960s, all quite innocent when compared with the more explicit 'top shelf' magazines that became available from the 1970s and which effectively killed them off.

They are now often advertised as being of 'Fetish interest'; it has been suggested that a predilection for stockings was often formed when a young child would see up his mothers skirt whilst crawling along the floor. I can well remember Miss Eccles, a drama teacher at our grammar school in the late-1960s, who would have us naively adopting positions on the floor in the hall while she moved amongst us.........
