Nativity : 1953 |
Two slightly mystifying Cove Junior photographs from Phil Fouracre, lovingly preserved by his mother for more than fifty years. Mystifying because the costumes successfully disguise the participants who cannot be named except that Phil is able to say his brother John is second from left (1st photo) and third from left (2nd photo). Does anyone recognise themselves? Click either photo to see both enlarged. |
