1954/Alec Phillips/../../../../Black Eagle Journal ***

Mr and Mrs Alec Phillips came to the Atlas in Seagrave Road over nine years ago. In that time they have mainly concentrated on building up a good family trade, although being very close to Earls Court they have made many friends from past exhibitions, and also count several of the stand constructors amongst their customers.
The Atlas is Mr Phillips' first pub; before entering the trade he was in Fleet Street for over 30 years, spending a lot of that time with the Daily Sketch. He was mainly concerned with processing in the Dark Room and was in charge of that side when he left the paper. His last important job was processing all the photographs taken at the Coronation in 1953 for the Sketch.
During the war Alec joined the RAF and was immediately transferred to the Photographic section at Whitehall where his experience proved very useful.
The house was at one time very popular with the stars from the Old Empress Theatre and the Phillips can remember regular visits from Norman Wisdom, Richard Hearne and Frankie Vaughan to name but three. - Black Eagle Journal ***
