There is another recent donation that I really must mention. Ken Cooke was also a supporter of the Archive and had donated material previously. Shortly before he went into hospital, he gave the picture shown here to son Colin, asking that it was passed to me at Moreton. It is a remarkable picture, signed "H Austin, Christmas 1933" and was a gift to Freddie Henry. The picture passed to Henry's daughter and from there onto Ken. A label on the back states the provenance. It was something that I was delighted to receive, and under such poignant circumstances. I was able immediately to include it in the Pop Up museum for all to see, but wished to make its source well understood.
Thank you Ken... RIP
