Eric Lloyd 1940 Compare

Eric Lloyd was billed as "The Forces Sweetheart" during the war and afterwards in revues such as "Soldiers In Skirts", which much has been written about on this stream and elsewhere. According to Roger Bakers, excellent resource "Drag", Eric became a theatrical costumier, when the popularity of such revues waned in the late 1950's/60's.

This image is estimated to be from the late 40's.

 

Technical Bit:

The original image is seen on the left. For colourisation purposes the image was reduced to greyscale, to enable the colour saturation to take full effect. Some original handwriting has been removed using both clone/healing techniques, as were some of the blemishes on the original image.
