It is in brilliant color and appears to not have seen the light of day since 1937. Stunning piece of history, especially after seeing “The King’s Speech”

It refers to Simon Brech in the last line. Can any owner of a programme confirm that my copy is indeed of this 1937 programme? Many thanks.

It is inscribed “1939 – 1945″ but my Grandfather would have been about 63 years old at the outbreak of the First World War, so what was the medal for? I would be glad of any information!

It says was used in the ceremony. It is gold, and has a tiny emrald on it.

Is there any value?

Any idea of the value (if any) of this official programme?
