Rare Southern Railway CHATHAM NAVY WEEK Orig Flyer Dockyard Naval Maritime 1929

Description: Chatham Navy Days Summer 1929 12th - 17th August On offer here is a very rare chance to get a vintage item of Royal Navy / Railway memorabilia. Now close to being 100 years old, this lovely Southern Railway flyer is, in my opinion in great condition for its age with just a small tear top/middle. It measures around 12 x 6.5 inches. It’s advertising ‘cheap day tickets’ to see the navy at the annual Chatham Navy Week event at the Dockyard. The poster was printed and produced by McCorquodale & Co. Ltd. of London. It’s a great, hard to get hold of flyer that would look fabulous if framed or just to add to a collection. I also currently have listed a number of other vintage Navy Days/weeks memorabilia including Railway and Steamer flyers plus badges, programmes & other related items. ———————— Chatham Navy Week was an annual event in Chatham, Kent, starting in 1928 running through to 1938. It re-started again after the War in 1948 and was renamed Chatham Navy Days. The event’s celebrated the town's rich naval history and typically featured a range of maritime-themed activities, including ship tours, naval displays, and historical reenactments. They showcased Chatham's significant role in the Royal Navy's heritage and fostered a sense of pride in the community. It was also an opportunity for visitors to engage with naval traditions and learn about the town's maritime legacy through ship visits, interactive experiences and exhibitions. ————————- The items that I am starting to sell on eBay are from my own personal collection and have been curated over many years. To the highest bidder it will be packaged and sent in a way that I would like to receive it - items will always be sent via a fully insured and signed for service whether sent within the UK or worldwide. Many thanks for looking.
