Thanks to Debby Blecha for providing information, including this explanation from Ms Blecha of the reason the photograph was taken: "I can tell you why they were bearded...it was during Aberdeen’s Diamond Jubilee, they would be put in jail if they didn’t have those beards. It was against Post Office policy at the time but they allowed it for that special occasion. You also had to wear Jubilee buttons. I have photos of my sister and I in our long dresses that were made by my Mother. The part I remember most was the street dance—we did the twist!!"
