Rare Supremes photos

[Bobby88]

I'm always interested in finding rarely-seen photos of the Supremes, particularly from the Flo years. I'm not sure exactly how rare these pictures are, but they're new to me.

In London:

Not sure where this is from:

A party of some sort?

This looks like a concert program. Couldn't they have used a better pic of Mary?

If interested and you have Facebook, go check out the Reflections: The Supremes Legacy page. They have a ton of pics not normally seen.

I never liked the pic of Mary on the More Hits LP cover. I always thought it would be nice to see a less tinted print of the Where Did Our Love Go? cover shot....I love the cover as is, and it [[along with A Go Go) is one of the most iconic and recognizable entire 60's LP covers. but Flo' hair looks green, and Diana's hair looks blue. I guess the CW&P snapshot is the more true-to-life color wise one.

I never like Mary's pic on More Hits either. I remember when I first started collecting Motown records in 2002 at the age of 14 and found an old paper sleeve around one of the albums [[I think it was Stevie Wonder's "Uptight") listing other records available and their prices. I saw the More Hits album and literally asked "Who's the white woman at the end?" LOL I had to go online to view an up-close shot of it to see that the "white" woman was in fact poor shot of Mary.

I've noticed that some of the photos look very different in color. The color pics of the girls' dresses on Hullaballoo singing "Back in My Arms Again" and "You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You" are much less flattering [[IMO) than the black and white clips, both in fit and color.

I just bought a copy of Tony Turner's "All that Glittered" from Amazon a few days ago. I've heard there are great photos in there.

I think my least favorite album cover pic of Mary is Meet the Supremes. She seemed really thin during that time period and I personally don't think she's looks too hot with such a slender face. She's absolutely gorgeous with a little meat in her cheeks.
