1951réf. 1604641951. Commemorating the American fallen A compelling album apparently made by the family of a fallen serviceman and therefore unique commemorating Eisenhower's presentation of the Roll of Honor to St Paul's Cathedral. The roll lists the 28000 American soldiers stationed in Britain who gave their lives in the Second World War. The album includes large-format photographs of the military procession to the ceremony; attendees entering the cathedral including Churchill Mountbatten Attlee the Queen Mother and Princess Elizabeth Eisenhower and Curtis LeMay; photographs of the service including the congregation singing hymns and the sermon by the Archbishop of Canterbury; and Eisenhower leaving the Cathedral. The ceremony was held on Independence Day. Eisenhower delivered a message: "Each name inscribed in this book is a story of personal tragedy and a grieving family; a story repeated endlessly in white crosses girdling the globe. The Americans whose names here appear were part of the price that free men have been forced a second time to pay in this century to defend human liberty and rights". The album includes a copy of a page from the roll listing names from Hiltabidle to Hitchings - presumably the album was made by the family of someone listed there. We could trace no other similar album. In 1958 the American Memorial Chapel was completed in a part of the cathedral that a bomb had hit in 1940. The roll now resides there and a page is turned each day to show different names. Landscape quarto album 318 x 419 mm. Four letterpress leaves partly printed in gilt comprising title excerpt from the Archbishop of Canterbury's address Eisenhower's introduction to the Roll of Honour and copy of page from roll all with acetate covers. Tan leatherette front cover lettered in blind "Commemoration Service - St. Paul's Cathedral - July 4. 1951." cord-bound cord recently renewed 33 heavy card leaves with 28 mounted black and white silver gelatin press photographs 203 x 254 cm most captioned by hand. Binding neatly restored and consolidated the photographs in sharp unblemished condition slight discolouration around letterpress leaves. In very good condition. hardcover

réf. 384129Hardcover. Very Good. Oblong quarto. Stiiff black leather blank album. Joints and spine eroded but sound very good internally about fine. Photo album with approximately 165 well-composed images. Various sizes mostly two three or four to a page. Circa 1945. The album consists largely of images of Washington D.C. New York City Gettysburg Philadelphia and Valley Forge with a reasonable selection of images of sailors on leave. In Washington many of the photographs are of government buildings and monuments including some taken from the Washington Monument cherry blossoms and in the other cities of various landmark buildings. Among the Washington photos are several from a homecoming parade for General Eisenhower with a couple of him waving from a jeep and another pair of close-ups of him speaking. The photographs were taken by Petty Officer Hugh W. Brannon of Atlanta. Brannon spent thirty years working for Eastman Kodak and during the War was a photographer assigned to the Staff of Secretary of the Navy James V.
