Could Skjoldbro provide a source for the fresh scan of this picture? Have spoken to the editor of the Nottingham Evening Press, the Imperial War Museum, Carlisle Archive Centre and the British Library and all deny that they have ever had this photo in their possession.

The version the Nottingham Evening Post published on 29th April 1920 was a cropped version with the chair 'removed' from the background. This cropped 'chairless' version was also published in the Daily Mail on the same day. I have not come across the beautifully crisp and 'full' portrait version of this picture you have uploaded in any publication before, so I'm assuming it was a fresh scan taken from the original image?

Contrary to legend, it never did appear in the Nottingham Evening Post in 1915/16. The Wiki page cites an Internet article by Tom Bates who says, 'The visit and some of his anecdotes were reported by the local newspaper, the Nottingham Evening Post, who took a photograph that they later released to the police for his "wanted" notice in 1920'. But its wrong. There is no report during that whole period that features Toplis or the return of any war hero from Blackwell. PixSrgy (talk) 09:00, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
