John Capstack (1881-?) had a studio on the sea front at Blackpool, England, and during this time he took many ‘glamorous’ photographs of well-known individuals such as the actresses Peggy Ashcroft in the 1920s and Anna May Wong in 1933. Amy Johnson CBE (1903-1941) was one of the most influential and inspirational women of the twentieth century. She was the first woman to fly solo from England to Australia in 1930 and set a string of other records throughout her career. Johnson (married name Amy Mollison) had her picture taken by Capstack twice, once in flying gear and once in a de Havilland DH.60 Gypsy Moth, the plane she flew.
