Prisoners’ Art Exhibition.
Writing to the “New Zealand Banker,” Sergeant A. E. Crommelin, formerly on the staff of the Bank of New South Wales, Wellington and now a prisoner of war in Camp Stalag 383, Germany, writes home about an arts and crafts exhibition held recently in their camp. He states: “Drawings, paintings, cartoons, etchings, and reproductions, comprised the arts section, and here New Zealand, representing only 7J per cent of the camp strength, scored a notable triumph with the work of J. K. Welch, Masterton. His coloured cartoons of prominent camp figures, and incidents, were outstanding.”
