About the image:

Billy Cotton (6 May 1899 – 25 March 1969) and his team of glamorous showgirls, The Silhouettes. Billy Cotton was a Bandleader, although he could not write music or play a musical instrument . He had an extraordinary life that during that included work as a Bus driver, a welterweight boxer, footballer for Brentford, and flew for the RAF but crashed his plane and nearly died on the same day that the RAF was formed. Billy Cotton had a twenty-year career in show business after the war. His Sunday lunchtime radio show – which transferred to television in 1956 – was heralded with his trademark catchphrase “Wakey wakey” and became a staple for millions of households between 1949 and 1968. photograph by George Douglas

The printing:

C-type prints are notable for their continuous tone and vibrant colours. The first widely used colour print process, modern c-type prints are printed from high resolution digital files produced from drum-scanned negatives or transparencies.

C-type prints use dye-based photographic papers and should not be confused with inkjet, or giclée prints. Read more about C-type printing HERE.
