An album containing approximately 125 original black and white production photographs, portraits, and stills from the acclaimed film 'The Wooden Horse' (1950) directed by Jack Lee and featuring notable performances by Leo Genn, David Tomlinson, and Anthony Steel.
The album contains different scences and promotional images from the movie, alongside strikingly clear headshots of actors including Leo Genn, David Tomlinson, Anthony Steel, Anthony Dawson, Bryan Forbes, and Michael Goodliffe.
Interestingly, it appears that this album was previously loaned to the BBC, as noted on the inside front cover, adding an intriguing layer of provenance.
The Wooden Horse is based on the true story of an escape attempt by POWs in the infamous German prison camp Stalag Luft III. The film's title references a piece of exercise equipment that the prisoners cleverly used to conceal their escape efforts, drawing a parallel to the Trojan Horse, a symbol of cunning and deception.
This album offers a unique glimpse into the production of a classic war film.
