| Description | The box items are cloth banners/ pennants made from mixed materials. The main design for the banner would include the WF emblem/logo/badge and colours to start. The standard colours for the cloth-based mixed material shields/banners were green, red and yellow; this would form the trimming along the edges, and the rest of the colours would be incorporated in the design; there is often a mixed material emblem in the centre of the shield or banner, there are stitched letters and embroidery letters, and stencil lettering. There are varying shapes, from shields, triangles, rectangles and squares; the size of items would also vary. Some items are identified by place and date; the dated items range from the earliest 1948 to the latest 1967. Mottos or sayings are often included in banners of themes such as friendship, nature, and motivation. Some items have frayed edges and a wooden holder to mount banners/shields. There are hand-painted designs of either fabric/acrylic/water colour paint; most items are in good condition for access.
