Nicholas Winton was a young stockbroker in London. Jews were under threat in Nazi-Occupied Europe and violence against Jewish buildings and business was increasing. He headed to Prague and hatched a plan that saved the lives of hundreds of children in the months before the outbreak of World War II. Nicholas was a socialist with an interest in international affairs and links with many Labour politicians; being born in 1909 and raised in an English family he was provided with a particular insight into what was happening in Europe and what the Nazi regime might be capable of. In December 1938 he travelled to Prague with his friend on behalf of the British Committee for Refugees from Czechoslovakia, and there Winton saw for himself the full scale of the problem facing Jews in German-Occupied Sudetenland. He was struck by the appalling conditions and his greatest concern was for the children. As a British citizen with contacts, Winton was convinced he could arrange the evacuation of young refugees to England. He and his colleagues Martin Blake and Doreen Warriner set up a makeshift headquarters in a hotel in Prague and began taking the names of families who wished to send their children to safety.

The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance brings out some of the most beautiful, important, rare, and expensive cars from around the world. And the auctions that take place around the event are no different. One of the most significant for sale this year is a Duesenberg originally owned by actor Gary Cooper. It could end up as one of the most expensive American cars ever sold. This Duesenberg SSJ is one of just two ever built. The SSJ was a special short-wheelbase version of the SJ. It was just 3,200 mm between the wheels, as opposed to the 3,6200 mm of the SJ. The cars used a supercharged twin-cam inline eight-cylinder engine. Thanks to a special dual-carburettor intake, the SSJs made 80 hp more than the standard SJ. The SJ was already one of the most powerful production cars of the time, and the 400 hp SSJ flew past it. Fittingly, both went to celebrity owners. The first was this car, sold to actor Gary Cooper. After Cooper’s ownership, the car passed through a number of rich but somewhat less famous owners in California. In 1949, it was purchased by Chicago banker D. Cameron Peck. Peck was one of the first […]
