Sydney Exposures book and exhibition caption: Shirley Temple look-alikes, Newtown, 2 October 1934 : In the mid-1930s, the enormous success of child film star Shirley Temple popularised tap dancing classes around the world and curly locks for little girls became de rigueur. Competitions to find Shirley Temple look-alikes proved popular, but the resemblance between the film star and the entrants in this group is apparent only to their mothers.

Shirley Temple Black was an American actress, singer, dancer, and diplomat who was Hollywood's number one box-office draw as a child actress from 1934 to 1938. Later, she was named United States ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia, and also served as Chief of Protocol of the United States. In this collection, we mixed about 50 photographs of Shirley Temple with hundreds of her look-alikes proposed by face recognition. Just for fun.
