A wallet believed to have been stolen in the early 1960s has been handed in to police in Hull.

The name R Russell is written on the back of the photograph

I saw that too, Stephen. My surname and my place of birth so I was desperately trying to think of someone in the family it might fit - no one!!

I heard a woman on the radio last night who had recognised the group and was able to "predict" what some other photo's were.
