Arthur C. Clarke Home Pictorial Report - Part Two

In this part two we'll have a look at what i've called Arthur C. Clarke "Wall of Awards". I have to say that, at the exception of Walt Disney and Frank Sinatra, i've never seen someone else who received so many awards in his life. A small note : although Sir Arthur did not believed in astrology, it's interesting to note that Arthur C. Clarke, Walt Disney and Frank Sinatra were all three Sagittarius, a sign with Jupiter being the "master" of the sign, Jupiter bringing generally luck, optimism, fame... and awards.

Above, the room at the top of the stairs, the one with all the awards is the next one and the awards are displayed on three walls.

Let's have a closer look at some of these in details!

A portrait of Arthur C. Clarke painted by, if my memory is right, a Sri Lankan painter.

A great picture shot in May 1947 at the Faculty of Science, Kings College, in London.

The room also include on the right some shelves with books, lots of them about Space...

...and over the shelves this great picture or Arthur C. Clarke, and i think it was shot the day he became "Sir".
