  Anyone know what "build: prop." is short for? One man is listed as "slim" but most of them are "prop."

• Peep O'Daze said:

  Maybe it's short for "Proper" i.e. normal?

  Hi bill where did you get your info on Thomas's birth and death dates? Are you related? That's so interesting putting dates and personal information to a face in this set of pictures. Regarding the comment about the barber above, it's amazing how modern this bloke's hair cut looks in one sense. He kinda reminds me of any number of Newcastle doormen over the last 15 years...
