<p dir="ltr">Albert Hampshire Buckroyd served in France in WW1. The contributor has tried to look online for his service records but hasn't found anything. The artefacts include a postcard from Albert in France with the location of the church scribbled out by the censor. The clock is French and perhaps the mountings show it was used in a vehicle. The contributor used it at home for years and it was Albert's job to wind it up. One postcards also show a fakir and has an Indian stamp, another is from Chile but appears to be post WW1.</p>
