Hi
I have some old theatrical family photos, but do not know which photographer took them. My family were from Handsworth and normally used Birmingham photographers. The attached photo was taken in the 1940s, because there are only three people in the act and normally my father would have been in it, but he was called to serve his country in the final part of the war - previous to that they were in ENSA.
I'd like to identify the photographer and find out when he/she died and whether copyright still exists (generally lasts for 70 years after the death of the photographer). Ideally I'd like to gain permission to use some of my families theatrical photos in a book I'm writing.
Appreciate any help.
