A BEMUSED CHURCHILL LOOKS OVER A FRONT-PAGE PHOTOGRAPH OF HIMSELF ON A COPY OF THE DAILY CHRONICLE AS HE IS GREETED IN MANCHESTER by the Lord Mayor, Mary Kingsmill Jones and other dignitaries on 5 December 1947, the eve of the 6 December ceremony in which he accepted the award of Freeman of Manchester.
