Former Secret War Gallery at Imperial War Museum pictures wanted...
 
Hello Gentlemen,

I hope it is OK to post this here, I wasn't really sure where else to put it.

By chance does anyone have pictures from the former Secret War Gallery that used to be part of the Imperial War Museum in London? Someone posted pictures from the display on a Facebook page recently, but they were mostly blurry. I was able to see enough in the pictures to spark my interest, but could not see any details of the display case contents.

Please post them if you have them.

Thanks

John

You have probably already seen this?

Contact with the IWM might produce more photos from the collection.

Thanks Tim. Yes I have seen that. What I am hoping for are pictures someone took of each display case on their visit. Something similar to this picture, but not blurry. ;)

Thanks Rob. I think those pictures are from the current display, but they show a few of the items I was hoping to see, like the UD-42 Marlin SMG. :)

Hi John, I did post a few clear images on our Facebook page "Behind the Lines-SOE and the Clandestine War". I need to find all the photos, taken a long time ago, on printed paper, before the digital age! I did take pictures of all the items on display. All the best, Clive.

Thanks Clive. I did see the pictures you posted on the FB page and have saved them for future reference. If you ever do find the rest of the pictures, please post them too. :D
