1940 Besson & Co London Bugle Broad Arrow WW2

1940 Besson & Co London Bugle Military Broad Arrow WW2 Silver with Mouthpiece

Made in 1940 during the Second World War, when Germany’s Blitzkrieg rapidly conquer Denmark, Norway, the Low Countries, and France, leading to the Dunkirk evacuation and the fall of Paris, while Italy entered the war, and Winston Churchill became PM. The Battle of Britain then began, where the RAF defended against the Luftwaffe, and The Blitz of London started, marking Germany’s shift from invasion to sustained bombing to break British morale.

Overall pretty good. Plenty of signs of age with dings and scratches you’d expect from and item over 85 years old.
