Hi all
I don't know about photographs of Churchill at the docks in Liverpool during the war but I receive a regular heads-up about anything related to Liverpool on ebay. At present there is a photograph of Churchill that is said to have been taken in Liverpool in 1951. A copy of that image is available for $4.99 US. But if you wish to break the bank, the same image signed by photographer Alfred Eisenstaedt is available for $4,700.00 US. Go on.... what's stopping you... put a bid in.
All the best

A copy of the same image of Churchill in Liverpool 1951 by Eisenstaedt sold for $10,980 inclusive of buyer's premium in
Bonham's catalogue this past May in a signed print of the photograph printed in 1994, lot no. 64. If they can print copies of these things whenever they like what makes them valuable???? I guess the key is the photographer lived until 1995, so that's what gives the premium... a collector's item as it were. (What for a signed Joe Neary or a Gerard Fleming???) Got a bit of loose change to spare, mate?
