The Cottingley Fairies. Frances and the Fairy Ring, 1917, printed by Harold Snelling circa 1920, a very rare vintage hand-coloured gelatin silver print of the photograph taken by Elsie Wright of her cousin Frances Griffiths, pencil letter 'A' to lower right corner, contemporary card mount, 14 x 19.5cm (Qty: 1) It is unknown how many of these hand-coloured versions of the photographs were produced but from their extreme scarcity the numbers must have been very small. It is known that a woman known to Edward Gardner as 'Elsie B' coloured some magic lantern slides made from the Cottingley Fairies photographs for Edward Gardner in October 1920. Whether she was responsible for the colouring of these photographs also is not known.
