'At the back of a Lake Macquarie office, hidden under a stamp and coin
collection, lies a time capsule of sorts.
It's a collection of magazines dating back to the late 1950s, which feature a
fresh-faced 18-year-old Ross Willis modelling for various Newcastle suit
tailors.
When Mr Willis rediscovered them during a spring clean more than 65 years
later, he showed his daughter Stephanie.
"When he said to me he was 18, I just couldn't believe it," Ms Willis said.
"I thought, 'Wow, look at him'; he was a very handsome guy."
Ms Willis said it was a "time warp" seeing her now 85-year-old father
modelling.
"It's like what my kids once said to me: you forget your parents have had a
whole life before you even came along."'
