Good question - it's obviously winter and out-of-doors. It's in an
industrial setting ("cloth-cap" workers in background). Churchill's binoculars
are official RAF Observer Corps issue. There are a number of photos of
Churchill with binoculars, but the only one I can think of where he had this
particular model was on his Italian visit in 1944. Man to Churchill's left has
what appears to be some sort of "pass" in his lapel. I note there are no
military in the picture.Jonathan Hayes -------------- Original message from "Antoine Capet" <[email protected]>: -------------- > Many thanks - but who are the people on the photograph ? > Where and when was it taken ? > > A.
