Late in 1941 the famous photographer, Bill Brant, with his team from ‘Picture Post’ visited the Savoy Chapel to prepare for the Christmas issue and a photograph of David King which was entitled ‘Innocence of Youth’ was selected to appear on the front cover.
David recalls “we took it in our stride and thought nothing more about it, However, some weeks later, my picture appeared on the cover of the magazine, appearing on the news stands on December 22nd, my mothers birthday. My father, on his way home from night work saw the magazine and immediately bought 6 copies, took them home and tossed them onto my mothers bed with the greeting, ‘Happy Birthday!”
