SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL (1874-1965) "The Second World War", six volumes by Winston S. Churchill, each volume signed and inscribed to Miss Mabel Johnson, O.B.E. Miss Mabel Johnson worked for the British Red Cross alongside Lady Spencer Churchill organising Russian food convoys during World War II, and became friends. As a result of this Lady Spencer Churchill gave Mabel Johnson this set of books. Included with this lot is a photograph of Miss M. Johnson beside Lady Churchill talking to a Russian Diplomat in 1943, an oil portrait of Miss M. Johnson, in a glazed frame, Miss Johnson's OBE and miniature First World War medals, and various newspaper cuttings. The Times, Monday June 27th 1955. Lady Churchill writes: "Miss Mabel Johnson, OBE, worked for the British Red Cross Society in both great wars. In the years between she was a member of the Conservative Central Office and held the post of Constituency Organiser and afterwards District Agent for the North and North West of England. She was well-known and well-loved by all who had to do with her in this work. In the First World War she was a member of a Red Cross Ambulance Unit, one of the women who replaced the men drivers in the lines of communication and were known for their energy and fearlessness. Miss Johnson returned to the Red Cross and the Order of St. John in the early days of World War Two; there she distinguished herself as a first class organiser, notably as secretary to the Central Hospital Supply Service and later in the War as Director of Civilian Relief. But it is of Miss Johnson's work for Russia that I can write with personal knowledge. In 1941 she became secretary of the Red Cross Aid to Russia Fund and in 1944 she went to Russia to establish Red Cross contacts. Her visit was a solid achievement and the next year we went to Russia together as guests of the Soviet Government. During the years 1941-1948 links were forged and strengthened between the two societies, largely by Miss Johnson's capacity, her training, her knowledge, and her lovable nature; these links have, alas, been frozen by the 'Cold War', but perhaps the seed industriously sowed and fostered may be alive, though buried, and may bear fruit some day. Miss Johnson was an officer of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. She also held two Russian declarations, the medal of the Red Banner of Labour and Distinguished Service Badge of the Russian Red Cross and Red Crescent." Provenance: Miss Mabel Johnson was the vendor's Aunt.
