Description

You definitely won't find another of this 1943 Original Brass Name Plate Naval Souvenir of Motor Launch HMS ML 589 Class Fairmile B, as both the brass name plate and wooden plinth came from the actual boat! The plaque is in very good condition with a few minor surface scuffs/scratches.
