Terry Brown was kind enough to share these photographs of Elsie in the 1930s with me. Click or tap on any of them to open the gallery:
Elsie Carlisle, no later than 1933. A drawing based on this photo appears in Melody Maker at the end of 1933. From the collection of Terry Brown.
Elsie Carlisle, mid-1930s. From the collection of Terry Brown.
Elsie Carlisle c. 1936. The dress and hairstyle are identical to those in the photo of Elsie on the sheet music to “Up the Wooden Hill to Bedfordshire” (1936). From the collection of Terry Brown.
