THE MESSENGER
Image size, .300 x .300
It was the desription of a war time story by Wally Ford (born Broken Hill 1918) that bought this work into being. On a visit to my studio, Wally commented,"This room hasn't changed since 1939, Checker Vaughan and me had a cuppa right there, the day we both left to go and fight." Wally returned to the mines, then went on to own Taxis, he was a lay historian, didn't speak of the war much, but liked to tell of Broken Hill's unique role in it. His mate, a telegraph boy, would deliver messages from the Defence Department up until 10pm.
For Families with sons and daughters away serving, 10pm was the end of the emotional day.
SOLD, Kevin Hill art dealer to the Cassone collection
