Deja vu

When Lottie Robertson saw a black-and-white photo of a boy picking his nose on the front of a birthday card, she thought he looked familiar.

And she was right - the picture, taken in 1964, was of her father Edward.

It had been snapped by a photographer in Edgbaston, Birmingham, but was rejected as unsuitable by his parents.

Mr Robertson, 45, of Aldridge, West Midlands, said: "They presented me with this card. I looked at it, had a double take and thought: That's me!"

The photograph was one of a set commissioned by Mr Robertson's parents. The photographer thought it would be funny but his mother and father were not amused by the bad behaviour.

But it ended up, unknown to the Robertson family, being made into a card four decades later after a firm bought the copyright to some of the photographer's work.

Lottie, 16, saw the card in Birmingham's Mailbox shopping centre and thought the face and the hat looked similar to a picture of her father at home in a photo frame.

The £1.90 card, has the words 'Boys will be boys...." on the front and "It's Too Late to Change Now" inside.

His wife Anne said: "I still think he looks cute."
