The photo includes the bass guitar which was not one of the instruments stolen. After John Rostill, Hank Marvin had it and so did John Farrar. It eventually found its way to Barry Gibson who put it on display at Shadowmania, where I saw and handled it.
Also the Burns 6-string guitars were later rebadged as Baldwins and I assume the stolen ones would therefore not have sported Burns badges.
Whatever this photo is, I think it’s not the haul from the theft.
But there are experts on this site who will know better than I do.
