I am very grateful that this panel went to a collector in a position to 
preserve it in a fine collection that has been documented.  Some of the 
copies have 
disappeared -- perhaps to fatal fates.    

Yes, I think it was the panel that went to Winston Churchill that was later 
found in the bottom of a wardrobe belonging to a family member. It is a rather 
humorous thing to think about the dilemna of having a forebearer such as 
Winston Churchill who must have received plaques and commemoratives by the truck 
load which one feels uncomfortable throwing away, but which are hard to store. 
Mr. Mason thinks he heard when he was a teenager that one of the panels was 
sent to the US, probably to the president. Since the panels were produced after 
the war, it may have been Truman rather than Roosevelt who received it. In any 
case I have never heard of there being such a panel in the US, so it is a 
mystery what has happened to it. I would certainly be interested to know if anyone 
ever runs across it.
