Prince Charles portrait by Bryan Organ

Prince Charles, A Modern Royal Portrait. Close up of His Royal Highness Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales, as seen by painter Bryan Organ. The idea for the portrait was first broached in September 1979, and artist and sitter met on November of the same year. The National Portrait Gallery, which acquired the finished painting in 1980, left the design to be worked out by the artist and Prince Charles together. Bryan Organ, aged 46, has painted portraits of many people of note, including writer Malcolm Muggeridge, designer Mary Quant, and, in 1970, Princess Margaret, sister of the Queen and aunt of Prince Charles. The searching study of Prince Charles, in acrylics on canvas, indicates his interest in outdoor pursuits

Watched by its crew, Lieutenant Colonel Lenard Shelteon (left) and Major Russell Szcepanik, the Prince sat in the cockpit of the Mach 3 (over 2000 mph) twin jet 'spy' plane, that can fly at over 80,000 feet. The plane can survey 60,000 square miles of the earth's surface in one hour while on patrol at speeds faster than a speeding bullet

Video tape of "Rodborough Round"

With blurb "Rodborough Round is a sixteen millimeter film made by the students at Rodborough Secondary School in the spring of 1953. It was shot on a borrowed ex-Royal Air Force camera using surplus film. Since this original film has made splices in it and it is now 35 years later, the condition of the film is questionable. I think a copy of the film was given to the Rodborough Headmaster. Mostly it is about the school and the locale. Since I have no projector, I have not viewed it for years. I hope it will fit in St Paul's Archives"
