The Man in the Iron Mask

Harry Bensley was his name. His story is incredible. See more pictures here. (via Weird Vintage)

    His story? Two miniscule paragraphs that amount to roughly 100 words and a few posed photos? And his name was Bensley, not Bentley. Pathetic.

  2. I am SO sorry. Please accept my apologies. You are right, the blog here is often quite pathetic. Corrected.

  3. I wonder if that's the Patty O'Heater who ran off with my ex-neighbour, Jim N Eijer?

    Jim's girlfriend, Shar Cole is getting over it though, and is getting on like a house-on-fire with her new lodger, Barbie Q.

    I certainly found the story interesting, and maybe went a little further in my reading than Patty did, because Miss Cellania's links led me to much more than that to which Patty alludes.

    Might I recommend that she reads http://thebigretort.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/harry-bensley-great-iron-mask-hoax.html

    It's linked, within content in the links Miss Cellania posted, but maybe it was a link too far for Patty.

    I shall go out today, and wear my armoured helm with pride.
    Floreat Harry Bensley!

  4. Yo be fair, my corrections included adding another link, so the story would be longer.

    Thanks, more info added. Your response is more than many other sites would have done.
