I think your speculation is probably right, since looking more closely at the blurb, it would appear to have a date and time at the end, that is to say 6-6-41 at 5.40pm. So I agree with your suggestion that the 15th June was probably the date the photo was received by the paper. There is also a small commentary attached in Spanish, which needs some translation.

Photograph is dated 15 June 1941
Hope you can decipher the type written commentary

I must have been there around the same time the second shot shows an apparent bullet hole through one of the props.

Thanks for dating the pics Daren and thanks too for the other images Duxman. I remember buying these two air to air publicity shots of Red 3 from the Black 6 stall at some point.

Here’s a couple of mine of Black 6 in disguise, didn’t take a note of the date I’m afraid.

I agree Mike J, how can they be a “barn find”, presumably Connie Edwards knew exactly where they were all the time they were in his possession and as for original condition, I dont think so!!!!
Happy Christmas
Before White 4 was placed on her belly, I managed to get a few shots of her whilst she was standing on her own three legs!!!
As usual great pictures, thanks David and Brian.

I’m with Trolly Aux, footie costs around £50, rugby at Twickenham is about £70/80, Lord’s £65 and Green Fees anywhere are over £30, where else can you get such a fantastic full days entertainment for £27 its a bargain!!

Great coverage yesterday, particularly of the Spitfire pairing, serves me right to be stuck in a bloody office!!! Thanks to the generous contributors for sharing, marvellous.

Absolutely brilliant, well done to everyone responsible for this very tidy looking piece of work.
