The secret camera of Allan Hailstone
During his time at Bablake in the fifties Allan took
his camera to school and photographed people often unbeknownst to the
subjects. He tells me that he was afraid that Seaborne would find out
and confiscate the camera. Allan is God's gift to the archivist. Here
are eleven of his collection. He tells me he has dozens more. Stay tuned.
