My latest buy and have been wanting on for years and added bonus with the postcard. #ww1

Here is a very nice 1914 thank letter for donation to the sailors' and soldier' christmas fund. They donated George IV £2 (1823) coin and a Gothic crown (1847) coin.

A fantastic old tin shaped as a top hat with a Union Jack and colours. #tin #antique #tophat

First World War Christmas, number 24. ‘Sealed’ - Princess Mary’s Christmas gift was supplied in individual boxes packed in crates, or later in large cardboard boxes. Wrapped with coarse twine, they were secured with lead seals crimped with the Princess’s cypher. This is a rare survivor.

WW1 Dated 1917 letter. Distribution of Princess Mary tin to the child of 1447 - Staff Sgt Frank Mousley A.O.C. who sadly died on 23 August 1916, aged 27. #ww1 #history
