A photo my cousin took through the keyhole of the study at Samuel Southalls School in Worcester may be interested to hear that she remained interested in photography and had so much success with her Brownie 127 that she bought a Kodak 8mm cine camera.
She walked into WH Smith in Worcester mid 60s and saw a woman dragging a young girl, whom she assumed to be her daughter, into the managers office. She couldnt resist peeping through the keyhole and fortunately was carrying the cine camera at the time to capture this record of what followed. The mother was giving the girl a good over-the knee spanking while the manager was talking. She didn’t know what the girl had done to deserve it but she was really wriggling and the sound of the spanking was very loud.
The film is quite good quality for its time.
