Zoom in and explore hundreds of images of archive material relating to Winston Churchill, including personal letters, photographs and film.

Best to use the full screen option.

As it's not installed on this computer, I can only hope there are photos of Churchill comparing himself to babies, because all babies look like Winston Churchill. It's true, see Google image search results.

His dentures sold for $24,000 at a recent auction.

MetaFilter: We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall bite in France, we shall bite on the seas and the oceans, we shall bite with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall bite on the beaches, we shall bite on the landing grounds, we shall bite in the fields and in the streets, we shall bite in the hills; we shall never surrender.

Do they have the one with Winston and the donkey?

What? He's petting it--oh for... I can't take you kids anywhere.

Do they have the one where they removed his cigar from the picture? That's really egregious. They named the size/shape after him.
