If you wouldn't have written 60s, I would have guessed Edward Fox, the actor - but of course he was more a 70s man...

Re: The official AHF post-WW2 quiz thread
All well here, hope the same goes for you.
I will confirm the photographer bit being Lord Snowdon! Yes, he took the picture.
(not the picture in the picture, but the actual picture... )
Here's another famous face:
An author who had much to do with
the "mystery face". He too got into trouble!

Re: The official AHF post-WW2 quiz thread
COME ON NOW!
Inselaffe (of WWI quiz fame!) has already confirmed the identity of the famous "Face"
in PM correspondence
Robb, as far as I know the last person (last image posted) emigrated to Australia
so as to get a book published which was going to be banned at home!
