| Royale Studio - The Wallet 03 (colourised by mitchmen) |
After the marathon posting of 'Leather Merchants' and it's stars, and a short break to recuperate, I have started posting 'The Wallet' which is the earliest Royale story with a coherent, dramatic plot line. It's come down to us complete and though the images are not of the finest quality, most of them have scrubbed up well and they repay study. As you can see I have experimented with colourising them, but will make an announcement about that later.
'The Wallet' stars Ron Fenn (aka the Tough Schoolmaster) and Ian McAllister (from TEDS) and as you might guess it's about a pickpocket, but there's a surprising, not to say shocking outcome. There's a hidden subtext that makes it one of Clavering's more political comments about the plight of gay men in 50s Britain.
McAllister's pose in the picture above (right) might remind you of a well known image of a sailor by Lüger (aka Colt) and I cover that in the gallery article.
