Most of these photos feel like candids from a family album, except they’re not. They’re shot by a news outfit you’d never expect to care about puppets—Keystone Press Agency—who just happened to be there when the British Puppet and Model Theatre Guild threw its 1938 show in London. The real kicker: one image shows Molly Sheldrake, a woman in a sharp hat and coat, holding a marionette like it’s the most natural thing on earth. That photo alone is all the invitation you need to dig into the Guild’s next show.
