From among my ephemera. In time they become primary source historical documents.

The cover says it all

A nice little item and very interesting to see.

Like you I save all sorts of little items of ephemera, all connected with the Royal Navy. I must have literally thousands of items now.

As you say, not only are they interesting but in time they become very valuable historical documents.

Blimey! We've barely got that many ships these days! What HAVE the politicians done to the Royal Navy since the 1960s?
