Weymouth In Old Postcards and Photographs

The Man In The Iron Mask
This photo intrigued me and I spent many hours searching for information.

I heard a BBC trailer for a History programme which would reveal much about the man behind the mask.

Unfortunately I was unable to listen but was able to catch up later via the BBC
web site.

I discovered a fascinating Edwardian tale of gambling and debt.
