    Auction at Christie’s
    July 1954
    Despite currency restrictions and other irritations of the post-war world, London is still the centre of the art market, and Christie’s is the great focus of that market in London. This is the first set of photographs taken since Christie’s returned to their premises in King Street after German bombs completed gutted the building in 1941, leaving nothing but a shell. This particular auction of furniture, rugs, porcelain and objects of art fetched £22,479 and 9 shillings.

    Anita D'Ray, 21 year old film "starlet" is helped into a standard diving suit by leading seamen Frank Frost (left) and Bert Bull (right) aboard the Royal Navy experimental deep sea diving vessel HMS Reclaim at Chatham. Miss D'Ray is the ship's mascot and while on a visit to the ship she was persuaded by the officers and men to try on diving gear. Born in Molesey Surrey, Miss D'Ray began her stage career with the American Red Cross at the age of 14. She joined the Windmill Theatre in 1944 and last year began appearing in films. Aside from her acting career Miss D'Ray's chief interest is flying. Last year she won an air race on the Isle of Wight.
    3 October 1950

    H.M.S Reclaim was commissioned in 1949 and was deep diving and submarine rescue vessel, at that time the only ship in the British navy capable of deep diving operations. She was the last British warship to have sails. Although rarely used, they could apparently add half a knot to her speed. (FOTO:DUKAS/TOPFOTO)
