1949 Fight for Sight Fashion Show at the Gripps, HK Hotel

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1949

The Gripps was a restaurant in the Hongkong Hotel and it was where the Rotary Club had their "Fight for Sight" fashion show, which was organised by my mother as manageress of the Linen Chest, in the early 1950s.  The charity fashion show was put on to raise funds for a second Trachoma Clinic run by the Rotarians.
