Questions & Comments

Great item!

Most people don't know this, but after the war, the British were so grateful to Mr. Churchill that in the mid-1950's the Queen arranged a very special honor for the man many people saw as having saved England from Nazi conquest.

Usually dukedoms are given only to members of the Royal Family upon marriage, but she offered to give him a very special, and unprecedented title. Her Majesty offered to make him the first-ever Duke of London. The Prime Minister graciously declined, since dukes couldn't be members of Parliament at that time. Churchill's son wanted to enter politics, and he couldn't do that because he would one day inherit his father's title.

F&W!
