Was it anyone on the forum who bought those? If that person comes forward I may have something to your gain featured in the photograph below.

Hi,
I am the author of the Emanuel School at War blog. I am also an Old Emanuel. I was speaking with Charles Hill's son this evening so would be very interested in anything that you may have. Charles Hill did indeed win the MM in the First World War and his son has his memoir.
I have been researching the role played by Emanuel alumni in two world wars for a major free public exhibition to be held in November 2014. It is looking to be the largest exhibition of its kind in the UK of any School.
Please let me know.
Many thanks,
Daniel.
