These photos are of a group called "The Magpies Costume Concert Party." They did concerts around Portsmouth during WWI. They raised a lot of money for charities and were often mentioned in the Portsmouth Evening News. The photos were taken by a Southsea photographer Moore and the photo in the different clothes is taken by Thomas Humphreys, probably all during WWI.
