Can You Name Them All (Slice 1)

I’ve sliced up the image into three sections, I can’t enhance the detail because it’s a textured photograph unfortunately.

School Production

This one took some preparation; it arrived as an A3 image badly creased!  Scanned in two passes, stitched together and ‘Photoshopped’ to remove the crease, cropped and reduced back to A4.  We asked questions and the answers are: Loftus Junior School production of The Old Music Hall and the year is probably 1981/2, but we await a definite. The annotation will take some time. But we can identify the following: girl in centre possibly Paula Danby, Rebecca Bowman is little girl in the bonnet on the right with hands together and Olivia McBurney is is seated front row, she is the little girl all in white with a white bonnet. We await other names.

An evening to remember – St Joseph’s School – 1940?

Apologies for the condition of this image. We know where it was taken, the occasion is unknown and even the date is a guess. Can anybody help?

Brotton Primary School – 1932

The question is: “What was the production and who were the participants?” We know the year as well as the location and assume it is possibly some school production. Can anybody assist? Malcolm Nellist advises: “I’m not sure but the lad third row from the front first on the left as you see it could be my dad, he would be 8 at the time Alan Nellist,
