THE GREAT WAR EXHIBITION AT DEWSBURY

The Branch were approached by Dewsbury Library to see if we could provide some material for a Great War Research Day on 10 November 2018. They are opening up their archives for the public to research relatives who may have fought in The Great War 1914 to 1918.

We were pleased to assist, by erecting a selection of our banners which we have used at various displays over the last four years.

These cover the war from start to finish with photographs from the Imperial War Museum archives. There is also a section on The Indian Army and a banner on the role of animals in the war.

The banners provided an informative and interesting backdrop to the library display.
