Anne Withnall would like to know who these men are.
The picture of the hockey players fell out of a book belonging to a friend.
The only clue is at the back of the photo it states: “Oscar Way, Head Street, Colchester.”
Regrettably, there is no date.
But what makes the issue all the more baffling is that neither Anne, who is 80, nor her friend, 91-year-old Mary Smith, have any connection with Colchester.
They both live in Bournemouth.
The book may have belonged to a family member which might explain something, but the two friends find it so “baffling.”
Anne said: “Mary would love to know any further details that may throw some light on the origin of the picture.”
She added: “I recently had a similar situation and sent a photo to the Bournemouth Echo. They very kindly printed it and I even had contact with one of the men in the photo, which turned out to be a 1960’s local darts team which my father and brother played for.”
Anyone who can identify the people in the picture is asked to email Anne on anne.withnall@tesco.net
