"Auerbach: A Journey Through Time and Valor" Step into the captivating world of Auerbach, a name that resonates with history and heroism. From RFC (Royal Flying Corps) officers proudly displaying their Graduation Certificates to the haunting image of Royal Fusiliers marching through Peckham during World War I, this collection offers glimpses into a bygone era. Immerse yourself in the aerial view of trenches etched across West Flanders, Belgium – a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made on those hallowed grounds. In contrast, a studio photo captures the youthfulness and determination of a young man donning his army uniform amidst the chaos of war. Witness Army airship Beta nestled within its shed at OTC camp in Farnborough, an emblematic symbol of innovation amidst conflict. The aerial view from Clairmarais aerodrome in Northern France transports you to an era where bravery soared high above enemy lines. Yet amidst these tales of valor, there are moments that remind us of life's simple joys - a boy and girl frolicking on Saltburn beach in North Yorkshire or fishermen tending to their boats off Southwold coast in Suffolk. These snapshots offer respite from tumultuous times. Harold Auerbach's intricate drawing from Olten, Switzerland invites us to appreciate art as both solace and expression during wartime. Meanwhile, Winston Churchill's heartfelt thank-you letter serves as testament to Auerbach's contribution towards Britain's resilience. The graves scattered across Northern France stand as solemn reminders honoring fallen RFC crewmen who bravely took flight for freedom. And finally, we glimpse into luxurious dining aboard RMS Olympic with its WW1-era menu card from White Star Line – an unexpected juxtaposition against images steeped in conflict. Auerbach encapsulates more than just photographs; it encapsulates stories etched onto celluloid strips.
