Object description

An Air Raid Warden runs across a large pile of rubble, past a casualty lying on the ground, to report this incident in Edith Villas, Fulham, to his ARP post, and summon help from the other Civil Defence services. Behind him, another Warden can be seen, holding a young child in his arms. More rubble and timbers can be seen, spilling out of the badly-damaged house behind them.

Label
