Fay Compton - English Actress and her chows circa 1919

Its always such a treat to discover I have more than one snippet or photo of a person with their chows. I had the actual article above in my albums for years, then as I was paging through looking for something else I realized I also had an autographed postcard of the actress with a single chow as well. These chows are some of the earlier examples of the breed in England and look to be very adored. The one to the left could very well be a blue, judging from the face shadings
