A banner wand showing Churchill and V for Victory

When the white ends are removed from the wand, and the wand is unfurled, a colourful banner is revealed. In wartime Britain this would have ensured a huge round of applause. On the reverse side of the banner there is a hand written message: ‘Best wishes for Victory James Grayson’. There is also an ink stamp: ‘From Grayson. Gilderson, Yorks.’
