WW2 Double VC winners Charles Upham VC signed label fixed on 1970 National Army Museum Victoria Cross cover. Charles Hazlitt Upham, VC and Bar (21 September 1908 - 22 November 1994) was a New Zealand soldier who was awarded the Victoria Cross (VC) twice during the Second World War - for gallantry in Crete in May 1941, and in Egypt, in July 1942. He was the most recent of only three people to receive the VC twice, the only one to receive two VCs during the Second World War and the only combat soldier to receive the award twice. As a result, Upham is often described as the most highly decorated Commonwealth soldier of that war, as the VC is the Commonwealth's highest award for gallantry in the face of the enemy. Later held as POW in Colditz. Good Condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide.

An amazing gold ring comprising a slender hoop with elaborately decorated shoulders and raised bezel with banded agate intaglio depicting the bust of helmeted god Mars above advancing gryphon. In ancient Roman religion and myth, Mars was the god of war and also an agricultural guardian, a combination characteristic of early Rome. He was second in importance only to Jupiter and he was the most prominent of the military gods in the religion of the Roman army. Most of his festivals were held in March, the month named for him, and in October, which began the season for military campaigning and ended the season for farming.

Ca. 100-200 AD. A gold ring with a circular band, flared shoulders, and an oval bezel set with a carnelian gem depicting a scorpion. The ring is in excellent condition and it is suitable for modern wear. The scorpion was the emblem of the Praetorian Guard, the Roman emperor's personal army elite unit. The praetorian scorpion has long been recognised as a reference to Tiberius, who was born under the astrological sign of the Scorpio, and who first concentrated the praetorian guard in its own camp in Rome, thus giving it full corporate identity (Russell and Hellström 2020, 135). Hence, it is not inconceivable that this ring might have belonged to a praetorian guard. Cf. Russell, A., Hellström, M. (2020). The social dynamics of Roman imperial imagery.

Original vintage World War Two UK propaganda poster: Careless Talk Costs Lives "Strictly between you and meâ€Â¦". Image of a sailor and army soldier chatting next to a building wall with Hitler's head poking out of the window above. Cyril Kenneth Bird CBE (17 December 1887 â€â€œ 11 June 1965), known by the pen name Fougasse, was a British cartoonist best known for his work in Punch magazine (of which he served as editor from 1949 to 1953) and his World War II warning propaganda posters. He also designed many posters for the London Underground. Bird was born in London on 17 December 1887, the son of Arthur Bird, a company director. He was educated at Cheltenham College and King's College London (B.Sc). While at King's College he attended evening art classes at the Regent Street Polytechnic and at the School of Photo-Engraving in Bolt Court. He was seriously injured at the Battle of Gallipoli during World War I and invalided out of the British Army. Bird first contributed to Punch in 1916, while convalescing, and also contributed to several other British newspapers and magazines, including the Graphic and Tatler. His pen name was based on the fougasse, a type of mine. As one of the best known cartoonists of the time, he was one of 170 authors who created doll-sized books exclusively for Queen Mary's Dolls' House; his illustrated verse tale, written on postage stamp-sized pages, was published as a regular-sized hardback in 2012 by the Royal Collection and Walker Books. In the course of the 1920s and 1930s, his drawings evolved from the traditionally representational to an innovative, spare, style that was both unique and popular, featuring in many advertising campaigns as well as in magazine editorial. He became art editor of Punch from 1937 to 1949, then editor until 1953. He was the only cartoonist ever to edit the magazine. During World War II, he worked unpaid for the Ministry of Information, designing humorous but effective propaganda posters including the famous "Careless Talk Costs Lives" series. For this work he was awarded the honour of Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1946. He illustrated and co-wrote several humorous books with W. D. H. McCullough. These included the very successful Aces Made Easy â€â€œ or Pons asinorum in a nutshell, on the subject of contract bridge, in 1934, and You Have Been Warned â€â€œ A Complete Guide to the Road, in 1935. In the mid 1950s, he taught at the Christian Science Sunday School in the Sloane Square church, which has since been converted into the Cadogan Hall concert hall. He died in London, aged 77. Since 2009 his cartoon of a butler carrying a tray has been used to illustrate the front page of British Airways' First Class menus, continuing an association with the airline which goes back to the 1930s when Fougasse penned advertising posters for BA's forerunner, Imperial Airways. Good condition, creasing, staining. Country of issue: UK, designer: Fougasse (Cyril Kenneth Bird), size (cm): 30x21, year of printing: 1940s.
