QUERY: DICKENS LAND LONDON 1941 MEDALS

Gamp + Pickwick

Philip Mernick of London writes:

I attach an image of two bronze medals depicting Dickensian characters. They are one-sided with a hole in the back, possibly for hanging on a hook or nail.

Both read FROM DICKENS LAND LONDON 1941. There are at least three more in the “set”. Although a number have appeared on eBay, nobody here seems to know who made them.

1941 London was not the time or place for exhibitions or medal making. Could they be American? Possibly given away with a set of books?

Interesting - I hadn't seen these before. Can anyone help? Thanks. -Editor
