A new batch of over 300 images has recently been added to the SWOP website www.swop.org.uk.
They are the usual eclectic mix of photographs of people and places taken by the Bucks Free Press photographer Ron Goodearl.
This week we show a selection of the people images taken by Ron around the district in 1956.
High quality prints or digital high resolution images are available for a small fee by emailing deweymiked@aol.com.
These performers in middle-eastern costume are members of a local group called “Concord”, but further details are not known, April 1956. Can any reader supply further information?:
