Celebrate the 85th anniversary of the Battle of Britain with this white ceramic mug, featuring stunning artwork and blueprints of a Spitfire and two Hurricanes. Designed by the Imperial War Museums (IWM), this special edition mug is a perfect tribute to the iconic aircraft that played crucial roles in the air battles of 1940.
The Supermarine Spitfires and Hawker Hurricanes were the two dominant RAF aircraft flown during the Battle of Britain. The Spitfires were faster, sleeker, and could climb higher than the Hurricanes. Although Hurricanes outnumbered Spitfires and were slower and unable to reach the same altitudes, they were more robust. While the Spitfire has since become the more famous of the two, the Hurricane played an equally important role in the air battles of 1940.
This special anniversary edition WW2 mug is available for a limited time to commemorate the Battle of Britain 85th anniversary. It's a perfect addition to any history enthusiast's collection, combining practicality with a piece of aviation history.
