Beryl picked out a photo of the prefects from an album borrowed from the late Angela Spencer (Weed).

In response to a request to identify those featured, Robin Blick weighed in with eight of the names and then Beryl passed on the names from Angela's album to complete the list, the only difference being that Robin named Roy Stainton as Syd. David Day has written in to explain that there is no contridiction as his name was actually Royston but they called him Syd after his middle name Sydney.
