Sometimes there appear in the marketplace four-up prints of John Willie LA bondage photographs. The overall print size is 8×10 inches, which has four 4×5 inch prints. The LA bondage photos were produced as contact prints from negatives. Willie then cut these down to 4×10 (two-up) or 4×5 prints to be put into sets to mail to customers.

I have several four-up prints of photos from model sets of Pat and Judy taken in 1960. A four-up print of photos of June was included in mailings of John Willie’s comic The Race for the Gold Cup as a promotion for his bondage photos.

One four-up of Pat that I have includes two outtakes for the set of photos that included those of Pat bound to a bench. These are the two on the right.

The two on the left are from another set produced at the same time. J. B. Rund reproduces the full set of 12 photos of Pat bound to a bench on pages 348 and 349 of Possibilities: The Photographs of John Willie (2016).

It’s possible that Willie used these outtakes in later mailings, removing two of the photos that appeared in the published set.

Possibilities: The Photographs of John Willie is one of the essential books for the work of John Willie. It is available from the publisher.
