    1. [THEATRE-UK] Theatre Photographs
    2. Barry Wilmot
    3. Hi everyone, As promised, here is the first batch of theatricals who stayed in my grandmother's theatrical 'digs' mainly during the 1940's & 50's. I will first list the photographs and then I will wade through the guest book, where they all wrote their little letters of thanks, some of them are very funny. If there is anyone you are researching, drop me a line and I'll sort out copies for you. I will stagger the information so I don't clog up the system. Part 1. - loose photographs. Les Lee Billy Knight ? Rawson ( Male, Christian name torn) Nita Jewell Knight and Jewell ( obviously a double act- Billy Knight & Nita Jewell) Dylys & Denise Allen Mayne ( In drag, dated 1948 ) Fay Everidge (nude) Allen Allison ( In drag - from a show called Soldiers in skirts) Karl Fairfax ( Again in drag from the same show dated 1948) Peter Love ( In drag from the same show) Jimmy Slater ( in drag dated 1950) Betty Adams Eric Knight (portrait & in drag dated 1948) Harry Segal & Bert Ward ("radio's boy scout and girl guide") Two Maniacs Sam Bellini ( In clown costume balancing a spinning plate in both hands and a chair on his forehead) The Six Cooper Lovelies ( 'Passions & Peaches Company 1950) Andrew Reid ( In drag) Bert Ward ( in drag dated 1950) The Deep River Boys Chief Eagle Eye (Dated 1951) Harry Lauder G.H. Elliott Paula & Frank Joyce They are the loose photographs I have, there are also some photographs in the guest book. I'll start listing the names from the book next time.
