1954 Christmas Party at HQLF

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

1954

This photo was taken by my husband before a party at HQLF in 1954. You can see that it says Merry Xmas on the banner so that must give us a positive date as my husband would only have been in HK at Christmas in 1954.

This is a close up of the effigy at the 1954 Christmas Party at HQLF shown on a wider shot of the party also posted here. This was taken before the party began and one of the cards appears to be the same as the one I have that I have posted on the site.

1954 HQLF Christmas Party

I can now date this party at HQLF as being Christmas 1954, the decorations include Santa Claus and the effigy seen here, my husband has labelled photos of the effigy on its own as 'what a guy' but obviously it can't be Guy Fawkes at Christmas. David suggests it could represent a spy as my husband was in "G" INT any other ideas?

My husband has identified a Capt Storey, a Major Bussell and G 51 George. The G 51 George refers to the effigy so maybe the first G is as G in 'G' Branch?
