Boris Karloff's Family life
Boris Karloff's Family life
Find here a small exhibition provided by Peter Barker and curated for this event. Peter is not only the Head of School for Design and Communication here at PCA, but the Great Nephew of Boris Karloff himself. In his talk, Peter will introduce and expand on these and other materials relating to Boris's British family connections.
This is just a taster of some of the items from Peter's private family collection.
We thank Peter and the rest of the Pratt-Barker family for allowing us to showcase these.
