The studio that both Jill and David were under contract to at the time of their marriage, Rank. sent a photographer with them on "honeymoon" in Scotland.

Gotta love the old studio system and its publicity machine.

Thanks for the scoop! These are new for me. Weird to have a photographer along. I noticed David had no wedding ring. Bet they couldn't afford one back then.

Looks like Scotland but I've never been there.

It is Arran, a Scottish island.
Men did not automatically wear wedding rings in the 50s.

Ah. Thank you. Another nice pic of them and better as it's not riddled with the photographers marks. The second photo is nice also.
Beautiful place.

I don't see a ring on Jill's hand either. Maybe it's there, my eyesight's not very good these days.

I was rather excited to find them and share. Wish they didn't have 'REX' all over them. At least eilidhsd's are nice and free of it. Glad she posted hers. :D
