COR Ray Lord when signing this very rare military souvenir was a 90 year old D-Day Veteran who landed on Sword Beach with 3rd division and was awarded French Legion D'Honneur. He served as a corporal in the 2nd Batallion East Regiment Yorkshire on 6th June 1944 and went on to receive Frances highest honour during a ceremony in Hull at the time this was published. This special commemorative issue (at the time of listing) appears unavailable worldwide (please search to confirm). In either instance it is extremely rare and is a 9" x 6" large commemorative cover devoted to the D-Day veteran showing a portrait of him as he looked at the time of D-Day, a scene of the actual battle he fought in, a portrait of him when signing the souvenir five years ago when he was ninety years old. It is great condition (there is slight curvature from compression caused from the plastic wallet that kept it mint and perhaps light imperfections but overall this is outstanding condition graded ex minus). Ray Lord has hand signed the souvenir under his portrait perfectly positioned in large felt tip pen and I believe only 150 were produced for worldwide distribution which this was individually numbered 127 from the series. It is the ultimate souvenir of this great D-Day Yorkshire veteran.
