My homecast Salute to Donald Featherstone’s Centenary (54mm Prince August).My toy soldier style tribute to Donald Featherstone, Don being the physiotherapist to Southampton FC for many years (Airfix Footballers). He probably wore a suit and tie, not a tracksuit.
MARCH is my excuse to photograph my MARCHing figures and MARCHing bands in my collection so these are a small tribute to Don, the sort of Britain’s figures that he would have seen in his inspiration – H.G. Wells’ Little Wars.
A tiny parade of some of my vintage Britain’s Guards, MARCHing to celebrate Donald Featherstone’s Centenary.Some Donald Featherstone inspiration – his 30mm Spencer Smith figures in the Plattville Valley, an ACW game from his first book (and my favourite) War Games 1962
Donald Featherstone (1918 – 2013) would have been 100 years old today.
