Edinburgh during the Edinburgh Festival, 1961. Above is

"The Epstein Exhibition was
probably one of the most successful events ever in the lifetime of
The Festival. Myself and some of my friends, not arty types in the
slightest, were so impressed we went twice.
On one of the times we saw
Albert Finney who was appearing, if I remember rightly, at The
Assembly Hall"
