I have a few pictures of famous people from the 40s and 50s. Although they were not all film stars they were all famous.
Benny Hill in 1955.
 
Maybe not quite as well known, Lucian Freud an Artist who came from Germany to study art In Britain and on the right is Brenadan Behan, an Irish playwright. The photo was taken in 1952.
 
Trevor I am not sure but it is an actual photo from when my brother played and had a trial at a club somewhere. Bye. Jean.
 
Keith the signature is not real but he signed the photo when mom went with a group from the IMI to the LA Reserve I think but he put June and not Jean. Oh well not to worry. He died from kidney failure didn't he?. Jean.
 
We took this of Charles and Diana when we were at a swimming venue at Prestatyn North Wales. Think it was something to do with his Investiture?????. The year would have been about 1982. Not very good at dates. Bye. Jean.
 
From the left we have Peter Pears, I dont know him. E.M.Forster, I dont know him either, but I seem to know the name. Benjamin Britten, I have heard of him, and the crew member is not named.
 
We have photo's of Danny La Rue, Les Dawson , Billy Dainty, Ronnie Corbett,Cathy Kirby & a few others from when my wife was a dancer at the Alexandra theatre & Paington festival theatres, some are signed photo's & others are backstage pics
 
Nice one Len, unusual one that.
