ref. 145940Good. A red white and blue tricolour approximately 630 × 1110 mm in three panels sewn with a cedar of Lebanon painted in green and brown on the white central stripe. Material a little tanned and faded with a few tiny holes; a striking piece in good condition overall. Allied forces spearheaded by two brigades of the Australian 7th Division took Beirut from the Vichy French on 12 July 1941 and Syria and Lebanon were placed under British control two days later at the Armistice of Saint Jean d'Acre on terms that sidelined the Free French. De Gaulle insisted on concessions and secured ongoing Free French administration of Lebanon under General Georges Catroux. Newspaper reports give the date of the entry of de Gaulle and Catroux into Beirut as 26 July although a United States State Department cable dated 25 July gives it as 'noon today' 740.0011 European War 1939/13488. The Australian War Memorial holds newsreel footage of the event F01119 dated 'c July 1941' showing their motorcade processing past throngs of excited Australian and allied troops. The relatively crudely-painted cedar of Lebanon on this flag suggests that it was created from a plain French tricolour. It has been signed by 21 soldiers most with their service numbers with the signatures and inscriptions embroidered-over by hand in red and blue thread. It is inscribed near the top edge 'De Gaulle Victory March' and two of the signatures are dated 24 July 1941 suggesting that the flag was prepared in the days prior to the event. Most of the service numbers are South Australian and several of the signatories were members of the 9th Division Cavalry Regiment at that time attached to the 21st Brigade. Amongst them is the future Liberal Senator for South Australia Keith Alexander Laught 1907-1969. In addition to being an interesting artefact of Australian military forces in the Levant this flag also stands at a turning point in the history of Lebanon. Catroux would proclaim Lebanese independence on 26 November 1941 while maintaining French administrative control; a Lebanese government unilaterally declared full independence in November 1943 abolishing this flag; and the French Mandate finally concluded in 1946. unknown

1935ref. 201293San Francisco 1935. Very Good. The idea for the Golden Gate International Exposition also known as the 1939 World's Fair was first formulated in 1933. In 1934 two architects William Peyton Day and George W. Kelham who was instrumental in the PPIE were tasked with evaluating various sites in and around the city. By the end of 1934 that choice had narrowed to revamping the Presidio or to building an artificial island on the shoals of the Yerba Buena islands. A push by promoters of a mainland site was voted down in April 1935. As important a decision as this was there seems to be very little documentation on the campaign for a mainland site. The poster lists 22 practical reasons for a mainland fair appealing primarily to reasons that would have a direct effect on residents of San Francisco. It failed however to inspire voters in the way that building "Treasure Island" did. By this time also Treasure Island had plans in the making for future use as an airport and other practical reasons of its own to exist. Printed by the Sunset Courier. In 1925 the Courier was linked to an anti-union movement. In 1932 the Courier ran with the anti-Japanese headline "Orientals Are Invading Sunset District." In 1933 the Courier questioned the distribution of public funds to Jewish organizations. The relation of the Courier to the campaign is not known by me and they may have only offered the lowest printing rates. Printed on newsprint single-sided with red ruled border and red "BECAUSE" repeated. Very Good condition 23" x 17" creased from folds minor edgewear.
