Paul Raymond’s Model Directory: The Ultimate Glamour Archive

For the serious collector, Paul Raymond’s Model Directory is more than just a magazine; it is a definitive historical record of the UK’s most iconic glamour models. Launched as a companion to the “Big Five” (like Mayfair and Escort), the Model Directory focused purely on the models themselves, providing a high-gloss “directory” of the faces and figures that defined the 80s, 90s, and 2000s.

Our archive features a curated selection of Model Directory back issues, perfect for those looking to track the careers of specific models or complete a comprehensive Paul Raymond collection. From rare early volumes to the later glossy editions, these magazines are prized for their clean layouts and high-quality studio photography.
