As the magazine itself describes it: " The smile on the face of a tiger would warn off the least wary but the smile on the face of a chorister is plainly to be trusted. That is until he turns away and discloses the means to enforce Christmas demands which come high these days." Date: 1963

EDITORS COMMENTS
The cover of the December 1963 issue of Tatler magazine features a charming and innocent-looking chorister, with a captivating smile that would put even the wariest at ease. However, as the magazine's caption wittily points out, appearances can be deceiving. The smile on this choirboy's face is a facade, concealing the means to enforce the high demands of the Christmas season. The image, designed by AL Rockall and photographed by Jim Williams, masterfully captures the contrast between the expected innocence of a choirboy and the underlying reality of the holiday season's financial pressures. The red background adds a playful and humorous touch to the otherwise serious scene. The chorister's disguise of innocence is a common theme of the 1960s, where the fun and frivolity of the era often hid deeper truths. This image, with its clever use of contrast and witty caption, remains a delightful reminder of the unexpected twists and turns of the holiday season.
