Hi Mike
Many thanks for that. Yes, and I did look at the link you sent and found it truly fascinating.
I don't know about you, but I find that I often see a really great post and then lose it so am always grateful when someone posts photos again!
I recently bought a pair of rather "odd" poppies from one of my favourite haunts so I'll dig them out for you. The guy selling them had put them in a wee plastic envelope and scribbled "
1942" on it. They have no label or anything.
I asked him why and he replied that there must have been some other material with them at the time!
