Apologies for the dodgy French but here a a few equally dodgy photos of the front and back covers of Le Petit Journal. The lovely wife bought these for me today as a present, for which I am duly grateful. They didn't cost very much but it's the thought that counts.
I chose what I thought were the most evocative from an In the The Heart of Africa point of view, so I hope you like them. I've been given permission to have one or two framed for display at home (blimey!) so it's a bit of a result all round.
Loving the image of the fallen tree bridging the chasm - very King Kong...... and the one enjoining us to "Honour the heroes of Colonial Expansionism"....how times have changed!
ReplyDeleteIdem as above, just love the column crossing the ravine!
ReplyDeleteMakes want to run to the attic in an attempt to paint more colonials, well at least stare at them :p
