James Shaw

[paddythewriter]

I read that Frampton, the sculptor of the Peter Pan statue, used a model named James Shaw and I wondered if any photographs of this boy still exist. The head of the statue is not unlike Michael LL Davies and, having been a sculptor myself, I wondered whether Frampton had used a kind of stylised composite of the two. Also it seems strange to me that if JMB paid for the commission that he didn't insist on the photos of Michael being used.
