Hide AdMike Lelliott, who now lives in Reading, named himself as the boy third from right on the front row.
Mike said: “I live in Reading, Berkshire, and do not get this newspaper. I was so pleased when my niece passed this photo on to me as, sadly, I have only four photos of myself taken in childhood and this school photo is a welcome addition.”
Mike also appealed for any more school photos which he might appear in, to make up for his lack of childhood photos.
He said: “I was born in 1946 and went to St Mary’s Primary School, until 1958, and then Worthing High School for Boys, until 1963.”
