Francescsants: /* Notable Wrestlers */

{{Company box
| name = The Private Collection
| image = Logoheader2.jpg
| location = Norfolk, England
| years_active = 1989 - 2010

}}

== The Private Collection ==

The Private Collection was an established wrestling producer which had its origins in the [[Festelle]] company. This was originally jointly run by Phil Ryder and Phil Barrett, but Phil Barrett left Festelle in the late eighties to set up his own company - TPC - based in East Dereham, in Norfolk England. TPC operated in the female wrestling video business for over 20 years but seems to have become inactive since 2011.

The reason for the split is unclear but the contrast in the subsequent productions by the two companies does indicate the two Festelle founders had differing views on what they were looking to produce.
Festelle developed into a multi-faceted company, with videos ranging from aggressive topless or nude fighting with a referee present through to purely erotic encounters.
TPC produced videos which were competitive but somewhat restrained, without genuine aggression on either side. Many matches were topless but a large number were fought in one-piece swimsuits. No visible referees were used in the topless matches, the matches controlled where necessary by off-screen instructions/interventions, but Phil Barrett himself usually refereed the swimsuit bouts which were fully competitive. There was no nudity, and while some matches were described as erotic-style they were essentially semi-competitive with breast/crotch-mauling and extended face-sitting allowed.

In addition to their own productions, thanks to Phil Barrett's connections in Florida they were affiliated with the American [[Woman's World]] producer, therefore a large number of WW videos were also made available in the TPC catalogue. They also had sub-divisions of material grouped into the Video Combat series and the Special Collectors' series.

A number of the TPC wrestling bouts were held in a ordinary room with a handful of spectators crammed in to watch the action. This setting sometimes seemed slightly bizarre when the room still contained items of furniture or pictures hanging on the walls. A gym was also used for some matches, occasionally with a proper ring set up, and on at least one occasion members of the roster travelled to USA to compete in an event co-staged with [[Woman's World]].

Although their own website is still available they now seem to operate through the Kontex network as '''www.tpcwrestling.eu''' and the contents of their original site are gradually transferring to this site.

== Notable Wrestlers ==

Most of the company's roster fought exclusively for TPC with just a few who appeared for other companies, mainly [[Festelle]]. The regular girls were exceptionally good-looking and included '''[[Laura Lee]]''', '''[[Lucy Brand]]''', '''[[Sonja Van der Beck]]''', '''[[Stacey Lane]]''', '''[[Kelly Blair]]''', '''[[ Angela Scott]]''', '''[[Terri Vixen]]''', '''[[Anne Marie]]''', '''[[Yasmin]]''' and '''[[Anna Michaels]]'''.

Well known visiting wrestlers included Lita, '''[[Robin]]''', '''[[Tina Bjornson]]''', '''[[Lisa Marie]]''', '''[[Luna Winter]]''', '''[[Marie-Laure]]''', '''[[Susanne S]]''' and '''[[Susan Strong]]'''.

There was also the [[Jeanne Hunter]] Series of bikini submission matches where Jeanne battled [[Jill Monroe]], [[Monica]] and others.

Most of the matches produced by TPC were competitive wrestling but they also produced some semi-competitive/erotic wrestling, and a few boxing bouts. The boxing match between Laura Lee and Lucy Brand was a very memorable full-on battle.

In addition to their own productions, thanks to Phil Barrett's connections in Florida they were affiliated with the American [[Woman's World]] producer, therefore a large number of WW videos were also made available in the TPC catalogue. They also had sub-divisions of material grouped into the Video Combat series and the Special Collectors' series.

A number of the TPC wrestling bouts were held in a ordinary room with a handful of spectators crammed in to watch the action. This setting sometimes seemed slightly bizarre when the room still contained items of furniture or pictures hanging on the walls. A gym was also used for some matches, occasionally with a proper ring set up, and on at least one occasion members of the roster travelled to USA to compete in an event co-staged with [[Woman's World]].

Although their own website is still available they now seem to operate through the Kontex network as '''www.tpcwrestling.eu''' and the contents of their original site are gradually transferring to this site.

== Notable Wrestlers ==

Most of the company's roster fought exclusively for TPC with just a few who appeared for other companies, mainly [[Festelle]]. The regular girls were exceptionally good-looking and included '''[[Laura Lee]]''', '''[[Lucy Brand]]''', '''[[Sonja Van der Beck]]''', '''[[Lita]]''', '''[[Stacey Lane]]''', '''[[Kelly Blair]]''', '''[[ Angela Scott]]''', '''[[Terri Vixen]]''', '''[[Anne Marie]]''', '''[[Yasmin]]''' and '''[[Anna Michaels]]'''.

Well known visiting wrestlers included Lita, '''[[Robin]]''', '''[[Tina Bjornson]]''', '''[[Lisa Marie]]''', '''[[Luna Winter]]''', '''[[Marie-Laure]]''', '''[[Susanne S]]''' and '''[[Susan Strong]]'''.

There was also the [[Jeanne Hunter]] Series of bikini submission matches where Jeanne battled [[Jill Monroe]], [[Monica]] and others.

Most of the matches produced by TPC were competitive wrestling but they also produced some semi-competitive/erotic wrestling, and a few boxing bouts. The boxing match between Laura Lee and Lucy Brand was a very memorable full-on battle.

== The Private Collection ==

The Private Collection was an established wrestling producer which had its origins in the [[Festelle]] company. This was originally jointly run by Phil Ryder and Phil Barrett, but Phil Barrett left Festelle in the late eighties to set up his own company - TPC - based in East Dereham, in Norfolk England. TPC operated in the female wrestling video business for over 20 years but seems to have become inactive since 2011.

The reason for the split is unclear but the contrast in the subsequent productions by the two companies does indicate the two Festelle founders had differing views on what they were looking to produce.
Festelle developed into a multi-faceted company, with videos ranging from aggressive topless or nude fighting with a referee present through to purely erotic encounters.
TPC produced videos which were competitive but somewhat restrained, without genuine aggression on either side. Many matches were topless but a large number were fought in one-piece swimsuits. No visible referees were used in the topless matches, the matches controlled where necessary by off-screen instructions/interventions, but Phil Barrett himself usually refereed the swimsuit bouts which were fully competitive. There was no nudity, and while some matches were described as erotic-style they were essentially semi-competitive with breast/crotch-mauling and extended face-sitting allowed.

Woman's World

{{Company box

| years_active = 1995 - present

}}

== Woman's World ==
Woman's World, or more formally Woman's World Wrestling Club (WWWC), is a longstanding producer of women's wrestling videos, almost all of them in the fetish / topless / nude sub-genres. The company was founded, and is still run, by Dan Aber. Originally the studio was in a strip mall storefront in Ft. Lauderdale; later; the company moved to a loft above a bowling alley in nearby Wilton Manors.

Woman's World (the correct spelling; not Women's) has produced an astonishingly huge library of titles, over 1,100 to date featuring over 100 wrestlers. Every imaginable type of interest is represented: from traditional submission wrestling to more kink-oriented types of matches, to the just plain unusual (pugil stick bouts, hair-washing stipulations, hypnosis, etc even underwater matches).

The company has outlasted countless better-funded competitors over the decades by it's bare-basic approach to wrestling videos. There are no special effects, no on-screen graphics, no theme music, and no elaborate packaging for the videos (first VHS, now DVD) which are hand-labelled. For many years; the website was frozen in time in the "early internet era" with clip-art animated gif logos and the such. Almost nothing is spent on high-end cosmetics or costumes for the competitors. Aber scripts, films, edits, and dubs the videos himself. Periodically compilation sets are released; these are of a specific theme (only pinfalls, only submissions, only a specific wrestler, etc) and sold at special prices.

All of this allows the videos to be sold at aggressively low prices, and with the aforementioned huge number of titles. The company also has excellent service, with rapid and accurate shipping. For many years a monthly paper newsletter with additional discounts was mailed to repeat customers; of recent this has been contracted to irregular periodic mailings.

Early in the company's history it periodically had access to a ring, but almost all of the videos are shot on floor mats. The exceptions being "unusual settings"-matches such as in an office, house, or even swimming pool. Most of the matches are stand-alone, but at various points in the company's history, Woman's World attempted a Federation-type setup with a championship belt passed between wrestlers.

The quality of the wrestling varies, and is often subjective to what the viewer is looking to get out of it. Many of the wrestlers appear to be locally-recruited exotic dancers with a minimal amount of wrestling skill; however on the other end several girls on the roster are capable of at least moderately-complex maneuvers.

In the early 2010s Woman's World ceased production of new videos; at the time it had an available library of over a thousand titles. These were then migrated to streaming, as well as remaining available on DVD. Very recently, low-scale production of new material seems to be taking place. The company also arranges session matches on an ad hoc basis in the southern Florida region.

== Notable Wrestlers ==
Due to the low-budget approach, almost all of Woman's World's roster is specific to the company. None the less the company has attracted talent from as far away as Europe and South Africa. Most of the roster wrestles under simple, one-name aliases. There have been some major name exceptions; Jill Monroe, Candi Fleeman, and Vanessa Harding have all had matches with Woman's World.

Some of the in-house roster developed fan bases simply due to the huge number of matches filmed: for example, [[Sherry Dee|Aquel]] in the 1990s; Lita (she was wrestling for TPC in the 2000s), [[Rose Devlin|Rose]], Rusty, Staci, Xena; and more recently Paula and Taylor.

== Woman's World ==
Woman's World, or more formally Woman's World Wrestling Club (WWWC), is a longstanding producer of women's wrestling videos, almost all of them in the fetish / topless / nude sub-genres. The company was founded, and is still run, by Dan Aber. Originally the studio was in a strip mall storefront in Ft. Lauderdale; later; the company moved to a loft above a bowling alley in nearby Wilton Manors.

Woman's World (the correct spelling; not Women's) has produced an astonishingly huge library of titles, over 1,100 to date featuring over 100 wrestlers. Every imaginable type of interest is represented: from traditional submission wrestling to more kink-oriented types of matches, to the just plain unusual (pugil stick bouts, hair-washing stipulations, hypnosis, etc even underwater matches).

The company has outlasted countless better-funded competitors over the decades by it's bare-basic approach to wrestling videos. There are no special effects, no on-screen graphics, no theme music, and no elaborate packaging for the videos (first VHS, now DVD) which are hand-labelled. For many years; the website was frozen in time in the "early internet era" with clip-art animated gif logos and the such. Almost nothing is spent on high-end cosmetics or costumes for the competitors. Aber scripts, films, edits, and dubs the videos himself. Periodically compilation sets are released; these are of a specific theme (only pinfalls, only submissions, only a specific wrestler, etc) and sold at special prices.

All of this allows the videos to be sold at aggressively low prices, and with the aforementioned huge number of titles. The company also has excellent service, with rapid and accurate shipping. For many years a monthly paper newsletter with additional discounts was mailed to repeat customers; of recent this has been contracted to irregular periodic mailings.

Early in the company's history it periodically had access to a ring, but almost all of the videos are shot on floor mats. The exceptions being "unusual settings"-matches such as in an office, house, or even swimming pool. Most of the matches are stand-alone, but at various points in the company's history, Woman's World attempted a Federation-type setup with a championship belt passed between wrestlers.

The quality of the wrestling varies, and is often subjective to what the viewer is looking to get out of it. Many of the wrestlers appear to be locally-recruited exotic dancers with a minimal amount of wrestling skill; however on the other end several girls on the roster are capable of at least moderately-complex maneuvers.

In the early 2010s Woman's World ceased production of new videos; at the time it had an available library of over a thousand titles. These were then migrated to streaming, as well as remaining available on DVD. Very recently, low-scale production of new material seems to be taking place. The company also arranges session matches on an ad hoc basis in the southern Florida region.

== Notable Wrestlers ==
Due to the low-budget approach, almost all of Woman's World's roster is specific to the company. None the less the company has attracted talent from as far away as Europe and South Africa. Most of the roster wrestles under simple, one-name aliases. There have been some major name exceptions; Jill Monroe, Candi Fleeman, and Vanessa Harding have all had matches with Woman's World.

Some of the in-house roster developed fan bases simply due to the huge number of matches filmed: for example, [[Sherry Dee|Aquel]] in the 1990s; then Lita (she was wrestling for TPC in the 2000’s), [[Rose Devlin|Rose]], Rusty, Staci, Xena; and more recently Paula and Taylor.

== The Private Collection ==

The Private Collection was an established wrestling producer which had its origins in the [[Festelle]] company. This was originally jointly run by Phil Ryder and Phil Barrett, but Phil Barrett left Festelle in the late eighties to set up his own company - TPC - based in East Dereham, in Norfolk England. TPC operated in the female wrestling video business for over 20 years but seems to have become inactive since 2011.

The reason for the split is unclear but the contrast in the subsequent productions by the two companies does indicate the two Festelle founders had differing views on what they were looking to produce.
Festelle developed into a multi-faceted company, with videos ranging from aggressive topless or nude fighting with a referee present through to purely erotic encounters.
TPC produced videos which were competitive but somewhat restrained, without genuine aggression on either side. Many matches were topless but a large number were fought in one-piece swimsuits. No visible referees were used in the topless matches, the matches controlled where necessary by off-screen instructions/interventions, but Phil Barrett himself usually refereed the swimsuit bouts which were fully competitive. There was no nudity, and while some matches were described as erotic-style they were essentially semi-competitive with breast/crotch-mauling and extended face-sitting allowed.

In addition to their own productions, thanks to Phil Barrett's connections in Florida they were affiliated with the American [[Woman's World]] producer, therefore a large number of WW videos were also made available in the TPC catalogue. They also had sub-divisions of material grouped into the Video Combat series and the Special Collectors' series.

A number of the TPC wrestling bouts were held in a ordinary room with a handful of spectators crammed in to watch the action. This setting sometimes seemed slightly bizarre when the room still contained items of furniture or pictures hanging on the walls. A gym was also used for some matches, occasionally with a proper ring set up, and on at least one occasion members of the roster travelled to USA to compete in an event co-staged with [[Woman's World]].

Although their own website is still available they now seem to operate through the Kontex network as '''www.tpcwrestling.eu''' and the contents of their original site are gradually transferring to this site.

== Notable Wrestlers ==

Most of the company's roster fought exclusively for TPC with just a few who appeared for other companies, mainly [[Festelle]]. The regular girls were exceptionally good-looking and included '''[[Laura Lee]]''', '''[[Lucy Brand]]''', '''[[Sonja Van der Beck]]''', '''[[Stacey Lane]]''', '''[[Kelly Blair]]''', '''[[ Angela Scott]]''', '''[[Terri Vixen]]''', '''[[Anne Marie]]''', '''[[Yasmin]]''' and '''[[Anna Michaels]]'''.

Well known visiting wrestlers included Lita, '''[[Robin]]''', '''[[Tina Bjornson]]''', '''[[Lisa Marie]]''', '''[[Luna Winter]]''', '''[[Marie-Laure]]''', '''[[Susanne S]]''' and '''[[Susan Strong]]'''.

There was also the [[Jeanne Hunter]] Series of bikini submission matches where Jeanne battled [[Jill Monroe]], [[Monica]] and others.

Most of the matches produced by TPC were competitive wrestling but they also produced some semi-competitive/erotic wrestling, and a few boxing bouts. The boxing match between Laura Lee and Lucy Brand was a very memorable full-on battle.
