This matchbox was created on the Lens front, near Vimy Ridge. Private Frederick Arthur Lee of the 3rd Canadian Engineers shaped it from a German shell case. The obverse of the matchbox has the Royal Flying Corps insignia, while the reverse depicts an engraving of a German soldier running.

Alexander Palace, Tsarskoye Selo, Russia, 1917,
A rare and unique set of Autochrome color photograph plates, taken by Alexander Zehest in 1917 of the interiors of the Alexander Palace, including both the Parade rooms and the personal rooms of the Imperial Family.
The Autochrome process was a rare and difficult one, invented by the Lumiere Brothers of France in 1903 and marketed in Europe and the US starting in 1907. The autochromes, 140 in total, were made in 1917 by the military photographer Andrei Zeest, who was invited by the art historian George Loukomski, Head of Tsarskoye Selo Inventory Commission. The Alexander Palace interiors were photographed in August-September, soon after the Tsar’s family left for exile.
