"Apocrypha,
[Das s]ind Bücher, so der heiligen Schrift nich gleic[h gehalten,]
aber doch nützlich und gut zu lesen sind."
Section heading for the Apocrypha, beginning of Judith, Biblia, Das ist: Die ganze Heilige Schrift des Alten und Neuen Testaments, Nach der deutschen Uebersetzung D. Martin Luthers (Philadelphia: Kimber und Scharpleß, Buchhändler, 1829), 615.
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 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 - Wegweisend - eine identität an der arbeit - Groundbreaking - an identity at work - show depot signage, based on the BR Corporate Identity style of plates - and headed notepaper along with a business card for Railfreight Petroleum at Ripple Lane depot in London.

If your not into war movies you might not like this one? This is the German version of what it was really like on the Russian front in winter. This is a very gripping movie that had me reaching for a jumper.
All actors unknown to me yet well acted thoughout.

An imposing stone building with arcaded ground floor stands in ruins. Neo-classical pillars and heraldic beasts are carved on the frontage. A painted notice in German is propped up on the first floor. It reads, "Nicht argern nur wundern!' ( Don't be angry - only marvel). This may reflect the distaste that some Germans had for the destruction they were ordered to make.

This shows a cavalry unit in a ruined French town. The men have dismounted and a few stand by the horses, while the rest are looking at the ruins. The German policy of devastating towns and villages as they retreated was designed to demoralise both the former inhabitants and the Allied troops.
A notice on the wall in German reads, 'zum Tilloy - Kronprinz Rupprecht weg und zer [?]ossen strasse.' Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria (1869-1955) was a professional soldier and commander of the 6th German Army.
