EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the symbolic winged shell mascot affixed to the grille of British statesman David Lloyd George's motor car during World War I. As Minister of Munitions from 1915, Lloyd George played a pivotal role in expediting the production of munitions for the Allied forces. In recognition of his invaluable contributions, a grateful manufacturer presented him with this unique memento. The winged shell, a powerful emblem of war and victory, served as a potent reminder of the ongoing conflict and the vital role that munitions played in its outcome. This historical image offers a fascinating glimpse into the symbolism and spirit of the era, as well as the close relationship between industry and government during times of national crisis.
