Four Fascists of Beaconsfield

Wow, two masterpieces in a row. If you thought yesterday’s was good, how about this?
Someone really had a thing for mid 20th century strongmen in Beaconsfield. As discovered by Alasdair when out house hunting. The agent apparently made no reference to the totalitarian bathroom, which is insane. What a feature! The rings, the rope, Hitler’s toilet duck! Myself I would have gone for a Franco before Tito, but the artist may have had Balkan roots. And there’s nothing better than a Balkan root right? Nyuk Nyuk. The location is described as “whisper quiet”.

    The bathroom appears to be a well preserved example of the 1930s re-education centre style. Low maintenance, plenty of wall fittings and hose out finishes.

    Hitler was known as the “Panzer of the Porcelain.” Hence the toilet duck.
