Churchill memorabilia sets a record at auction

BBC:

One of the largest collections of Sir Winston Churchill memorabilia, including an unsmoked cigar, has sold for nearly £600,000 at auction.

The items were sold by US publishing magnate, Steve Forbes, who amassed them over three decades.

... Forbes who gathered the collection, is chief executive of Forbes Inc and the grandson of Forbes magazine founder BC Forbes.

He said he was parting with the collection because his family did not share his passion for it.

SADLY - FOR THE FREE WORLD - IT SEEMS THE PASSION FOR CHURCHILL AND RECOGNITION OF HIS ENORMOUS CONTRIBUTIONS TO WESTERN CIVILIZATION IS BEING FORGOTTEN AND DELIBERATELY BLOTTED OUT BY THE POSTMODERN ANTI-WEST MULTI-CULTI LEFT.

SIGH.

[Forbes] was parting with the collection because his family did not share his passion for it.

That's pitiful, really. And a sad commentary on who the real heroes are (and were).
