    1941 Autographed Roster Card WW2 British Convoy Ship ORMONDE B21 SEE DESCRIPTION.
    I have tried to get more information on this from British Military museums but have been told they are short staffed. I tried to look up myself but only found Ormonde being sunk. Card measures 4x5 inches. It appears to be signed by 20 crew members including Captain.
    Here are some of the writing inside...
    " The UNITY of Empire is seen in ships galore
    As they plough in Convoy fashion from Britian's Island shore..."
    "WE'LL MEET AGAIN WE HOPE WE SHALL
    WHEN ON OUR HOMEWARD COURSE WE'RE BOUND
    MEANWHILE THIS SOUVENIR UNITES
    OUR HEARTS IN FRIENDSHIPS FOUND"
    Card has stains wrinkles & creases.
    We will ship this historic autographed piece worldwide, outside the U.S. will cause an increase in postage.
