The Book of Churchilliana A Century of Churchilliana is much more than just another tribute to Winston Churchill. Alongside a definitive collection of memorabilia, Douglas Hall provides the reader with a unique historical view on the man whose abiding image for millions is that of the indomitable bulldog – with his world-famous v-sign and trademark cigar – the inspiring leader who masterminded the Allied victory over Nazi Germany in the Second World War. It is almost impossible to do justice to the many different facets of this truly remarkable individual. As a soldier and politician who excelled as an artist and Nobel prize-winning author – his qualities have been celebrated by the nation for years. As a result, memorabilia in the form of portraits, ceramics and all manner of accessories have never waned in popularity and have come to be known as “Churchilliana”. “Churchilliana” covers the wild and the wacky (ashtrays, zippos, jam spoons and cartoons) to more official memorabilia such as, paintings, sculptures, plaques and correspondence. All this and more can be found alongside well researched and well-informed narrative which combine to lend a fresh perspective to the life of such a great man. Collecting Cigarette and Trade Cards |
