WORLD WAR 1- RUHLEBEN CAMP Superb collection of items relating to Ruhleben Internment/Prisoner of War Camp near Berlin established in 1914. There is a football connection because amongst those unfortunate enough to be interned were four former Everton players who had the misfortune to be in Germany when World War 1 began. The Camp was established by the Germans in retaliation for Britain interning German Nationals in October 1914 (mainly for their own safety). In November the Germans began arresting all male British subjects . Ruhleben Race Track in the Spandau suburb of Berlin was taken over as a Prison Camp and the prisoners were housed in stables and lofts and by 1915 over 4,400 men were held at the camp including over 1,000 merchant seamen. It was only after the USA Ambassador visited the camp in Spring 1915 that the abysmal conditions there improved and the prisoners started establishing a copy of life in England and the camp virtually became a British Enclave just two miles from the heart of the German Command Centre in Berlin.. The men elected Barracks Captains who then elected a governing board and a school, Dramatic Society, Literary Guild, Opera Company and Symphony Orchestra were all established. . The YMCA funded a Library and Football, Cricket, Tennis and Hockey Leagues were organised on the large track and infield areas of the camp. Stalls were built to house shops such as a tailor, cobbler, canteen and newspaper stand and this became known as "Bond Street" and other areas were known as Trafalgar Square and King Edward Street. The funding was provided by the British Government and private sources and although initially administered by the head of the board, the Dutch Government took over administration of the funding. The Camps were commanded by retired German officers and whilst food parcels etc from England helped the prisoners offset the conditions, the men were prisoners of war with very little reliable news of the war and German Winters were bitter. Eventually a Post Office was established to conduct delivery of internal mail and the sending of postcards etc to home. This is a wonderful collection of items relating to Ruhleben including a bound volume of the Camp magazine issued monthly in 1915. All the issues are present and one issue notes that Steve Bloomer (then 41) has only missed playing in one football match for his barrack. Apart from the ex Everton players, others interned included John Cameron the old Hotspurs manager and Wolstenholme who represented both Everton and Blackburn Rovers Each monthly magazine had circa 50 pages and there are ten issues plus a by-election special in the bound volume, Superb item. This collection also includes a collection of 9 Christmas cards produced in the camp, a 1 Mark Camp coin with Ruhleben inscriptions, Ruhleben Mail stamps, 21 postcards showing various scenes from the Camp including sport, barracks and one hand drawn card showing living conditions, three cards showing "Arms and Badges of Ruhleben", a handwritten letter with Camp envelope sent in July 1916, four postcards of the "Ruhleben Follies", a small pin badge and a copy of "The British Prisoner of War" magazine dated November 1918. Ruhleben Camp closed in 1918 and a small booklet "Postal History Study of The Ruhleben P.O.W. Camp 1914-18" is also included. This is a superb collection of items from the First World War and tells a story that has often been overlooked as men caught up in the War purely by being in Germany were imprisoned for over 4 years, the footballers for instance were there because they were coaching in Germany at the time .
