It may be hard to believe, but this sculpture is connected to James Bond. It is an image of Sir William Stephenson by Ruth Abernethy. Stephenson, a WW1 flyer, escaped from a German POW camp and returned to Canada, where he became a hardware manufacturer with international reach. Sir Winston Churchill called on him to assist in setting up a WW2 espionage training camp, simply known as Camp X, in Whitby, Canada, on the north shore of Lake Ontario. He later went on to write A Man Called Intrepid, about his wartime spy experiences and Ian Flemming, in his own words, stated that James Bond was a highly romanticized version of Sir William Stephenson. This image of the man stepping past a large symbolic X, is erected in front of Celebration Square and the Whitby Public Library. #sirwilliamstephenson #ianflemming #jamesbond #amancalledintrepid #campx #spy #espionage #sirwinstonchurchill #ww2 #wwii #whitby #whitbyontario #canada #spygadgets #celebrationsquare #whitbypubliclibrary #whitbypublicart #ruthabernethy

If 007 was real, he was born in Winnipeg, lied about his birth date, married an American tobacco heiress and built a fortune on his own inventions. That man is real and today is the anniversary of his death. Sir William Stephenson leader of spies, was 92 and had various military awards and distinguishments given to him from Canada, the U.S. and the U.K. #mancalledintrepid #sirwilliamstephenson ______________ #campx #whitbyontario #whitbywatchco #divewatch #spywatch #spymaster #watchfam #luxurytimepie #luxurywatches #007 #watchcollector #microbrandwatch #intrepidwatch #areyouintrepid #canadianwatchcompany #winnipeg #watchobsessed #automaticwatch #diverswatch #bluewatchmonday #bluedisl #watchaddiction #wristcandy #watchshot #intrepidtartan #watchlovers #watchaddicts #watchphotography
Intrepid Park was the adventure ground that started the thoughts to find an endearing way to continue to tell the stories of Canadaās heroes and heritage. The Intrepid Watch Package inspired by the real events and people of Camp X was how we began and now 80 years to the day since the Camp was first opened, we are proud to continue telling the story of Canadaās substantial input into intelligence during WWII and beyond. Founded by the SOE, the camp trained over 500 troops in skills of hand-to-hand combat, high tech radio operations, sabotage and propaganda. Led by arguably the greatest spy master of all time, Sir William Stephenson, the spy school continued as a legacy of intelligence knowledge forged by the courage of unassuming soldiers and civilians during WWII. _____________ #intrepidwatch #campx #areyouintrepid #whitbywatchco #sirwilliamstephenson #bluewatchmonday #bluedial #starburst #whitbyontario #spyschool #spywatch #divewatch #automaticwatch #mancalledintrepid #watchcollector #watchobsession #watchfam #canadianwatchcompany #luxurywatch #watchfanatic #watchaddiction #diverswatch #watchlovers #watchshot #watchoftheday #watchgame #watchobsessed #watchgrail #watchphotography #microbrandwatch

I went back to capture Sir William Stephenson closer to golden hour so you can see his face. Artist Ruth Abernethy faced him to the north on purpose as he was known for melting into the shadows but you can't blame a photographer for finding the light she needs. #whitby #sirwilliamstephenson #theoriginaljamesbond #intrepid #ruthabernethy #cassandrakoch #townofwhitby #sculpture #stock #durhamregion #stockwhitby To see more stock connect with us for pricing and usage rights: https://trinitydesign.ca/connect-2/

Founders pricing is back to honour a special date. September 2nd marks the 75th Commemoration of the End of WWII. While the Commonwealth countries also celebrate different dates this year, May 8 the surrender of Germany, August 15 victory over Japan, we can reflect on the meaning of end of war and the people and events that shaped generations to follow. One such person that played influential cards during both wars, for the British Security Coordination, and even the foundations of the CIA, was Sir William Stephenson. The Winnipeg native, inventor, pilot, entrepreneur and spy lead the Special Training School 103 known as Camp X, in Whitby. __________________ #campx #75thanniversaryendofww2 #sirwilliamstephenson #mancalledintrepid #canadianheritage #divewatch #intrepidwatch #sts103 #watchgame #luxurytimepiece #horology #areyouintrepid #diverswatch #swissmovement #canadianwatchcompany #watchfam #wwii #watchcollector #limitededitionwatch #microbrandwatch #wristcandy #watchoftheday #automaticwatch #whitbyontario #spywatch #007 #watchcollection #timepiece
