Picture Post - I got this one from the British rugby writer Master William Webb Ellis, who writes, "Hi Wes, Seeing as you've kindly agreed to let me steal some of your pictures, I thought I'd return the favour. Hope this one is esoteric enough to be included in your Gallery, but I'd quite understand if it doesn't light your candle. I came across this by accident. It's the front cover of 'Picture Post' magazine, specifically the Volume 5, No. 6 issue dated 11 November 1939. Caption not included in the picture reads, 'ONE MORE BLOW FOR HITLER! A girl of the A.T.S. blows up a football at the 'Army Comforts' headquarters in Berkshire.' Army comforts? A woman getting her mouth around some balls? Further comment from me at this stage would surely only lower the tone. All the best, William Webb Ellis."
