AMBASSADOR RIBBENTROP, 1938 - COLOURISED

Having met Soviet Ambassador Ivan Maisky and United States Ambassador Joe Kennedy, time to continue our tour of the London Diplomatic Corps and pop in on the German Ambassador in 1938, Joachim von Ribbentrop:

von Ribbentrop, German Ambassador to the Court of St. James in 1938.
Suggestions that he was recalled to Berlin in February 1938 in order
to become Foreign Minister of the Third Reich clearly belong to
alternative history.

von Ribbentrop "colourised". Nicely done, but the green shirt
must surely be an error. And the blue pen must be wrong, too.

Von Ribbentrop in "full parade rig". The brown shirt is much better.

And here he is, colourised and finally properly dressed for an Ambassador,
on the steps of the German Embassy in London. For the connection to
Herefordshire, see HERE
