1951 Press Photo Old Soldier reads outside the old Earl of Leicester Hospital

As if he were in Elizabethan England, an old soldier dressed in the picturesque uniform of "Good Queen, Bess" reads outside the Old Earl of Leicester hospital at Warwick, England. The atmosphere is authentic, for the hospital was built in 1571 when Shakespeare was just 7 years old.
