People Donating Scrap Metal For the War Effort, 1936. War brewing in Europe. 'Already the converted to the new creeds were casting their gold, their rings, their honour, into the melting pot of war, dedicating their iron and steel and their ploughshares in the name of self-expression, nationalism, Lebensraum, or just plain ambition. Already in Spain and Ethiopia, the guns were heard, the first drum beats of a tattoo that soon most of the world was to hear'. From "Time To Remember - The Time Of The Three Kings", 1936 ( Reel 4); documentary about events of the year of the abdication crisis.
