Some of my DUC friends may recall I posted this for Challenge 268. The original photo has now been published in the magazine above.
This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle August 1916.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images and have any stories and information to add please comment below.

The Postcard
A postally unused carte postale that was published by A. Richard of 84, Faub. du Temple, Paris, and printed by Edia of Versailles. The card has a divided back.
Abba Eban
"History teaches us that men and
nations behave wisely when they
have exhausted all other alternatives".
This was said during a speech in London UK on 16th. December 1970 by Abba Eban (1915-2002), an Israeli diplomat and writer.
Visa Paris No. 621
The card bears the imprimatur 'Visa Paris' followed by a unique reference number. This means that the image was inspected and deemed by the military authorities in the French capital not to be a security risk. Nevertheless the Albert name has been cut from the card.
'Visa Paris' indicates that the card was published during or soon after the Great War.
The Use of Artillery in the Great War
Artillery was very heavily used by both sides during the Great War. The British fired over 170 million artillery rounds of all types, weighing more than 5 million tons - that's an average of around 70 pounds (32 kilos) per shell.
With an average length of two feet, that number of shells if laid end to end would stretch for 64,394 miles (103,632 kilometres). That's over two and a half times round the Earth. If the artillery of the Central Powers of Germany and its allies is factored in, the figure can be doubled to 5 encirclements of the planet.
During the first two weeks of the Third Battle of Ypres, over 4 million rounds were fired at a cost of over £22,000,000 - a huge sum of money, especially over a century ago.
Artillery was the killer and maimer of the war of attrition.
According to Dennis Winter's book 'Death's Men' three quarters of battle casualties were caused by artillery rounds. According to John Keegan ('The Face of Battle') casualties were:
- Bayonets - less than 1%
- Bullets - 30%
- Artillery and Bombs - 70%
Keegan suggests however that the ratio changed during advances, when massed men walking line-abreast with little protection across no-man's land were no match for for rifles and fortified machine gun emplacements.
Many artillery shells fired during the Great War failed to explode. Drake Goodman provides the following information on Flickr:
"During World War I, an estimated one tonne of explosives was fired for every square metre of territory on the Western front. As many as one in every three shells fired did not detonate. In the Ypres Salient alone, an estimated 300 million projectiles that the British and the German forces fired at each other were "duds", and most of them have not been recovered."
To this day, large quantities of Great War matériel are discovered on a regular basis. Many shells from the Great War were left buried in the mud, and often come to the surface during ploughing and land development.
For example, on the Somme battlefields in 2009 there were 1,025 interventions, unearthing over 6,000 pieces of ammunition weighing 44 tons.
Artillery shells may or may not still be live with explosive or gas, so the bomb disposal squad, of the Civilian Security of the Somme, dispose of them.
A huge mine under the German lines did not explode during the battle of Messines in 1917. The mine, containing several tons of ammonal and gun cotton, was triggered by lightning in 1955, creating an enormous crater.
The precise location of a second mine which also did not explode is unknown. Searches for it are not planned, as they would be too expensive and dangerous. For more on this, please search for "Cotehele Chapel"
The Somme Times
From 'The Somme Times', Monday, 31 July, 1916:
'There was a young girl of the Somme,
Who sat on a number five bomb,
She thought 'twas a dud 'un,
But it went off sudden -
Her exit she made with aplomb!'

The Boerentoren
The Boerentoren (English: "Farmer's Tower"; officially the KBC Tower, originally the Torengebouw van Antwerpen) is a historic tall building in Antwerp, Belgium.
The building was designed by Jan Van Hoenacker.
Constructed between 1929 and 1932 and originally 87.5 m (287 ft) high, it remains the tallest building and the second tallest structure of any kind in the city (after the Gothic Cathedral of Our Lady).
At the time of construction it was the second tallest building in Europe by roof height (after the Telefónica Building).
Designed in Art-deco style, the Boerentoren is one of Europe's very first tall buildings.
The building suffered V-1 damage during WW2.
In 1954 the tower was extended with an antenna which reached to a total height of 112.5 m (369 ft).
The Boerentoren remained the tallest in Belgium until 1960.
In 1976, the roof of the tower was raised by 8.3 m (27 ft), and the current roof height is therefore 95.8 m (314 ft).
It is currently ranked the 21st. tallest building in the country.
Antwerp
Antwerp (French: Anvers) is a city in Belgium, and is the capital of Antwerp province in Flanders. It has a population of over 520,000, and Its metropolitan area houses around 1,200,000 people, coming in second behind Brussels.
Antwerp is on the River Scheldt, linked to the North Sea by the Westerschelde estuary. It is about 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of Brussels, and about 15 kilometres (9 mi) from the Dutch border.
The Port of Antwerp is one of the biggest in the world, ranking second in Europe, and within the top 20 globally.
Antwerp was also the location of the world's oldest stock exchange building, originally built in 1531 and re-built in 1872. it has been derelict since 1997.
Antwerp has long been an important city in the Low Countries, both economically and culturally, especially before the Spanish Fury (1576) in the Dutch Revolt.
The inhabitants of Antwerp are nicknamed Sinjoren, after the Spanish honorific señor and French seigneur, "lord", referring to the Spanish noblemen who ruled the city in the 17th century.
Today Antwerp is a major trade and cultural centre, and is the world's second most multi-cultural city (after Amsterdam), home to 170 nationalities.
It is also known as "the diamond capital of the world" for its large diamond district.

È prevista solo una data in Italia per il nuovo tour di LP, all'anagrafe Laura Pergolizzi, il 15 maggio 2019 al Fabrique di Milano.
La cantautrice ha da poco pubblicato "Heart to Mouth”, uscito il 7 dicembre scorso.
“Heart to Mouth” è il quinto album in studio di LP anticipato dal singolo “Girls Go Wild” e dall’apripista “Recovery”. L’artista è stata in Italia per due tappe del suo instore tour negli scorsi giorni avvenuto a Roma e Milano. Parlando del nuovo album ha dichiarato: “Quando mi metto a comporre, c’è una sola linea, dritta: dal mio cuore alla mia bocca. In passato, c’era una città piena di strade che aveva bisogno della mia attenzione. Ora, mi sento come se avessi una grande autostrada per comunicare emozioni. Che si tratti di canzoni melanconiche o di grandi inni, vengono tutte dallo stesso posto”. Nei testi di “Heart to Mouth” sono affrontati diversi temi: dall’amore alle insicurezze, dal rimpianto all’infedeltà, passando per la redenzione, il sogno, l’abbandono, la lussuria e l’insicurezza. La cantante ha lavorato all’album insieme al “solito” Mike Del Rio, suo storico collaboratore, che già aveva curato la produzione di “Lost on You”.
Nonostante il nome italiano derivante da una madre napoletana e un padre per metà siciliano e per metà irlandese, LP non parla la nostra lingua. Nata nel 1978 ad Huntington, Long Island, New York, e cresciuta a Los Angeles, la cantautrice ha iniziato la sua carriera pubblicando due album, "Heart-Shaped Scar" del 2001 e "Suburban Sprawl & Alcool" del 2004, con due etichette indipendenti che tuttavia non sono riuscite distribuirli a dovere.
Per fortuna, questi primi insuccessi non l'hanno fermata e per diversi anni, LP ha lavorato nell'ombra come compositrice di hit per altre popstar, che includono Rihanna, per cui ha scritto "Cheers (Drink to That)", Christina Aguilera ("Beautiful People"), Cher ("Red", "Pride") e Leona Lewis ("Fingerprints"). Nel frattempo, ha continuato a studiare ed ha iniziato a suonare frequentemente l'ukulele, tanto che, come riporta Enrico Esposito in un articolo su Il Termopolio, la Martin Guitars ha costruito appositamente per lei un ukulele modificato in chitarra, con 6 corde invece di 4.
Dal 2014 ha ripreso ufficialmente ad interpretare le sue canzon aprendo i concerti di Bryan Ferry in America e pubblicando per la Warner Bros prima l'EP "Live at EastWest Studios" e poi l'album "Forever for Now", del 2014, seguito lo scorso 9 dicembre 2016 da "Lost on You", che l'ha portata all'attenzione del pubblico italiano.
Wakefield Tower is in the middle (the round one). Immeidately to the left is Bloody Tower (only half in the frame), and to the right, behind and looming over the tour guide is St. Thomas's Tower. Traitors' Gate is to the right (under St. Thomas's Tower) but not visible.

Photo published (first of the three) in Fairtrade Foundation's Fairtrade Fortnight 2009 Action Flyer.
Granted, it is not the Toronto Star or Globe and Mail, but this little paper is dedicated to the Marmora SnoFest. Located about an hour north of Belville, I was there for the 4-dog 4 mile and 6-dog 6 mile races on February 1st. 2009. The article was written about the Jamaican Dogsled Team founder, Danny Melville and contains a photo I took at the Haliburton Highlands Dogsled Derby in 2008.

'Ypres' by Laurence Binyon:
She was a city of patience; of proud name,
Dimmed by neglecting Time; of beauty and loss;
Of acquiescence in the creeping moss.
But on a sudden fierce destruction came
Tigerishly pouncing: thunderbolt and flame
Showered on her streets, to shatter them and toss
Her ancient towers to ashes. Riven across,
She rose, dead, into never-dying fame.
White against heavens of storm, a ghost, she is known
To the world's ends. The myriads of the brave
Sleep round her. Desolately glorified,
She, moon-like, draws her own far-moving tide
Of sorrow and memory; toward her, each alone,
Glide the dark dreams that seek an English grave.

No idea who the artist and writer are - they were typically not credited at this time. But this story is my all time no1 girls comic story. I love the art, the colouring, the writing and the funky hairdos.
This was part of an annual given to my Auntie Mary by her Auntie Vera and Uncle Ron then passed down to me. It's a bit raggedy now as the binding wasn't too good and it's been read and read and read and read....Probably kickstarted my interest in sci-fi.
edit: After asking a few people I think the artist might be John M Burns

I opened the summer 2011 issue of
"Creative Quarterly, The Journal of Art & Design" and found a photo of my sculpture (the bottom right) in the New Talent, Fine Art section. I didn't know it was going to be in there. What a nice surprise! (I apologize to those of you who are contacts in my Viki Quinn Art acct. as well. I just had to post it here too).
