Out and about in 1950s Petticoat Lane Market, my father came across the flamboyant horse racing tipster, Prince Monolulu. Here’s a link to his amazing story. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/horse-racing/54695641

Prompt Corner Cafe in Hampstead, circa 1950. My father used to go there to play chess against the old Russian exiles who used the place as their club house.

Another bomb site photo. What happened to this little boy? Is he alone or are there friends and siblings close by? Where in London is he? What sort of life did he go on to have? He could still be alive today.
