John Mattock's 'passport' as one of The Little Singers of the Celtic Cross
who went to Rome in 1960. The trip was recorded in The Pelican, Summer 1961
by Paul Maggiore, Ian Netton and David Walker — and is reproduced
on Page 2 of the Histories section.

Were these The Little Singers of the Celtic Cross 1960 ?
— issued as a Christmas card in 1960.

John is not sure about this.
(L-R) : can you help with some names please?

"If I'm not mistaken the artist lady Mrs Flynn was an
art teacher at St. Thomas Aquinas in Edinburgh.
A friend of Father T O'D — she gave us some
lessons on the occasional Saturday morning 1960.
She also did the murals at Sancta Maria Abbey Nunraw East Lothian, I think".

Ian Scott says (February 2010):
"These drawings were published as a pack of 6 and sold for 1/6."
