Description

When it became clear that the tide had turned in favour of allied forces in the Second World War, the “V” for victory became a rallying sign. Images of the great Sir Winston Churchill’s gesture of the two-fingered “V” gave hope to millions who struggled with the conflict at home and abroad. This enduring image is reproduced in the form of a lapel pin, manufactured to the exacting standards of quality that you’ve come to expect – finely struck and highly polished enhanced with high-quality enamel. The pin features the popular clutch back attachment.
