Wills Cigarette First World War Royal Navy Cards


I found this framed collection of reproduction Wills Cigarette cards today in the local charity shop. Thee frame is bit rubbish but the cards have been well mounted and look splendid. Unfortunately, there isn't an Artificer Engineer in the selection, so my Great Grandfather isn't represented, which is a bit of a shame. However, the wife quite likes the whole thing and I've been allowed to hang it in the dining room, which is a rarity for my framed military picture collection!

  2. Very cool! Perhaps find the card represent your grandfather and frame his separately alongside? He deserves to be highlighted after all.
