[On the boardwalk]

Joy, her back to the camera, walking along a boardwalk wearing a striped two piece suit and hat with fake leopard skin. Location unknown

Photographing Foam

A woman, probably Joy Thomas, in a bathing suit standing up to her ankles in water photographing the breaking waves.

Thomas, Ifor 1912-1961

[Sailors at work]

Five sailors at work on the deck of a merchant vessel. One is attending to chains, the others are involved in coiling a rope. Land and white clouds are visible behind them.

[Fruit]

A makeshift stall selling various fruits including breadfruits. A shopping basket is propped up on the breadfruits on the right of the picture.

[Washing up]

A young woman in the dress of a domestic servant sitting on the ground washing dishes in a bucket of water. Behind her is the sea.

[Merchant seamen]

Four seamen, one only partially visible, coiling a rope. Their headgear is suggestive of a tropical climate. Probably taken aboard the 'Eros' on which Joy Thomas sailed to Jamaica in 1937.

[Dressing table]

A bedrom scene with a garment strung across two hooks on the left of the picture, on the right is a narrow dressing table on which is a lit candle in a holder.

[Still Life]

Corner of a window photographed from the interior in which a framed photograph, an aspidistra and a vase are visible.

[Prince's Dock, Liverpool]

View from a high vantage point (probably the Liver Building) showing the entrance to Prince's Dock South-West, Liverpool. Also visible are the offices of the Belfast Steamship Company, and two vessels berthed on the quayside one identified as being 'Drottningholm' belonging to the Swedish American Line. The vessel is marked with distinctive stipes on her hull and the wording "Freight Protected Drottingholm Sverige" suggesting that this was taken during or shortly after WW2 when the vessel was chartered as an exchange ship. Bomb damage to a nearby warehouse also suggests that this photo was taken during or after the war years. The vessel moored behind her is Mauretania II painted in battleship grey and used as a troopship during WW2. Censorship regulations would probably not permitted such an image WW2 was ongoing.

[Photo Shoot]

A man showing Sian (daughter of Ifor & Joy Thomas) how to blow bubbles with a clay pipe whilst three photographers look on. Two studio lights are being used to light the scene.

[Bandaging an elbow]

A gauze bandage being applied to an elbow. The thumb on the left hand of the person applying the bandage is holding it in place while the right hand holds the bandage.

[Wire coils]

Two coils of wire seemingly connected and photographed with a light source coming from the top left of the photograph.
