Pin Badge Poppy Spitfire (Remembrance)

The poppy is the enduring symbol of remembrance of the First World War. It is strongly linked with Armistice Day (11 November), but the poppy's origin as a popular symbol of remembrance lies in the landscapes of the First World War. They flourished in the soil churned up by the fighting and shelling.

Continuing this tradition, the poppy is also as a symbol of remembrance for those lost in the following major conflicts such as the Second World War, Churchill was quoted saying "Never was so much owed by so many to so few" in regards to the pilots who flew in Spitfires during the war and so this pin badge looks to commemorate those few.

The Spitfire remains popular among enthusiasts and is on display at IWM Duxford and IWM London.

The Spitfire Blueprint artwork features the Spitfire Mk XIV and showcases a blueprint-style design.
