Vintage matte-finish 9.5 x 7.25 photo by Bassano Ltd. of London, of Churchill with members of the Conservative Whips Office from his second ministry (1951-1955), affixed to its 14.5 x 11.5 photographer’s mount, signed in fountain pen on the mount, “Winston S. Churchill,” and also signed by Government Chief Whip Patrick Buchan-Hepburn (later Lord Hailes); Cedric Drewe; Henry Studholme; Martin Redmayne; Dennis Vosper (later Lord Runcorn); Dick Thompson; Sir Herbert Butcher; and four others. Mount also bears a photographer’s pencil notation. In very good condition, with scattered soiling, toning, and dampstaining, with some over Churchill’s signature, several edge tears, and a few surface marks and dings to image. The Chief Whip and his deputies, generally 15 or so members, are members of parliament whose jobs are to keep the Prime Minister informed of the attitudes and dynamics of the party's members and also to enforce party discipline on key votes, sometime resorting to less than honorable means to do so.
