Αναμνηστική φωτογραφία του Δημήτρη Βλοντάκη, επιλοχία, όπου πάνω αριστερά, αναγράφεται : Ενθύμιον Εκστρατίας 1918 και πάνω δεξιά, στα γαλλικά : Souvenir de Salonica 1919. || ΦΩΤΟΓΡΑΦΙΑ ΤΟΥ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΗ ΒΛΟΝΤΑΚΗ ΤΟ 1918 ΣΤΗ ΘΕΣΣΑΛΟΝΙΚΗ.

Η φωτογραφία απεικονίζει τέσσερις άντρες : τον Δημήτρη Βλοντάκη, καθισμένο αριστερά, δυο συναγωνιστές του και κάποιο συγγενικό πρόσωπο, πολύ νέο. Οι τρεις άντρες φορούν στρατιωτική στολή χωρίς ζώνη, που σημαίνει ότι βρίσκονται σε έξοδο, άρβυλα, γκέτες και δίκοχα. Ενώ ο νεαρός φοράει κοστούμι. Κάτω, στην αριστερή γωνία, αναγράφεται ένα “Δ” καλλιγραφικό και οι αριθμοί 2, 16, 1... Η φωτογραφία είναι τοποθετημένη σ' ένα χαρτονένιο πλαίσιο και τραβήχτηκε από τον φωτογράφο Μεγαλοοικονόμου (?) στα Χανιά. || ΦΩΤΟΓΡΑΦΙΑ ΜΕ ΤΟΝ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΗ ΒΛΟΝΤΑΚΗ ΚΑΙ ΑΛΛΑ 3 ΑΝΤΡΕΣ.

My parents were Serbian and I collect medals so I have a particular interest in Serbian medals and other artefacts concerning the war in Serbia and the British presence there. The Oxfordshire Light Infantry fought at the battles at Lake Doiran in 1917 and 1918; 2800 British soldiers were killed and 2100 are buried in the war cemetery there. FIDAC was an organisation of European allies (Federation Interalliee Des Anciens Combattants), linking war veterans from Allied countries. In 1929 it was the British turn to head the organisation and in 1930 they met in Serbia. || Identity book for Krsta Balitch, Serbian refugee; medal for Oxfordshire Light Infantry in Serbia; Bulgarian medal from 1915-1917, referring to the Battle of Doiran; British Legion Serbian medal; FIDAC pin badge; cigarette silks of Serbian flags issued in 1916; letter sent by the Serbian organisation for war invalids to the Daily Mail, and badge 1912-1918; badge from Liverpool and district flag day 1915; Scottish Women's 'Allies Hospital Day' fund raising badges; Serbian Relief Fund flag (Churchill and Asquith were members); carved wooden box in shape of book with detachable spine - Serbian trench art; carved box with Serbian eagle, souvenir dated 1916 (refugees would be sent to public schools and this one might have a connection with Eton). An inscription on the inside read 'Only unity will save the Serbs'. Orange cutter made from a round of ammunition (Austrian) and a British pocket button, dated 1918; an inter-allied wound badge, showing the arms of the allies including Serbia, Japan, France. This was not made in Britain but was privately produced, probably by a Frenchman; die-cast stamp block plus stamps; French magazine 'J'ai vu', November 1915, issue on Serbia and King Peter I; pdf of collected images. || || A collection of artefacts concerning Serbia || Multiple || Propaganda || Remembrance || Refugees || Home Front || A collection of items concerning Serbia during the First World War, the campaigns, support for the Serbian cause on the home front and memorabilia from displaced Serbians. || Serbia || English || Français || || Propaganda || Paris || J'ai Vu || Publication || Home Front || French news magazine, issue year 2 no. 53, dated 20 November 1915 on King Peter of Serbia || Français || The King of Serbia
