A rare photograph of the Bloomsbury Health & Beauty Nude
Gymnastics Display Team seen relaxing together at the Hampstead
Literary Games of 1927.  The Bloomsbury Belles were gold medallists,
famously coached by Leonard and Virginia Woolf.  Plans for a nude
 pageant as part of the closing ceremony at this year's Isle of Wight
Literary Festival have been abandoned due to
the unseasonably bad weather.
