A German language version of the brochure that describes the new corporate identity of British Rail's Railfreight division that was introduced in 1987. The sector itself had been created in 1982 to better manage the freight traffic on the rail network.
The identities were based on the sub-sectors of the business, according to the nature of the product carried; coal, metal, aggregates, oil or petroleum, LPG, petro-chemicals, and construction materials. As well as the bold symbols for the sectors, depot plates were produced alongside an eyecatching new livery for the locomotives in the sector pool. The designs were produced, as was this brochure, by the graphic design concern of Roundel Design Group. The brochure was, I suspect, produced for the 1988 IVA industry exhibition held in Hamburg, Germany.
These pages - Ein Ausdruck einer neuen identität - an expression of a new identity shows a Class 47 diesel locomotive in BR's corporate livery and how treated in the new Railfreight identity.
Political graffiti, Western Front, during World War I. The wall of a ruined building, which is covered in graffiti. To the left it reads, ' ..ier gehts fur Kaiser und Reich' which could be translated as 'For king and country'. To the right, partly hidden by the wall, are the words, 'Gott straf[e?] Engl.', which could mean, ' May God punish England'.
This is an interesting example of a very direct form of propaganda and intimidation, but one which only occasionally survives in photographs. It is directly comparable to the use of sectarian graffiti on house walls in Belfast in the late twentieth century.
[Original reads: 'Hun humour.']
This detail from a stained glass window was installed in the church in 1912.. It is written in German to reflect the congregation's German-American heritage. The window was donated by the congregation's youth club and Sunday school.

This photograph of a wrecked crane and barge was probably taken after 2 August 1918, when the Australian forces recaptured Peronne from the Germans. As the Germans were forced to retreat, they destroyed equipment as well as devastating towns and villages.
Peronne had been held by the Allies early in March 1918, until 23 March when it fell in the face of the German advance. It was recaptured in August as part of the Allied retaliation which led to the end of the war. The history of Peronne is symbolic of the very small territorial gains for which so many lives were lost on both sides.

A small booklet giving details of the many attractions of holidays in Hungary; undated it is very much in the contemporary design style of the mid-1930s when the Hungarian tourist authorities used many such publicity images.
This artwork, of a couple in national or folk costume, is taken from a 1931 poster designed by artist and designer Arisztid Uher (1914 - 1945?). The cover appears to have been used, as was the poster, in a variety of languages.
