A certificate issued to a schoolchild. || This piece of folded paper is printed on one side only. A border of holly leaves and berries encloses a colourful scene, with the blue text at the bottom stating: ‘Printers, Sir Joseph Causton & Sons, Limited, London.’. The coats of arms of Canada, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Newfoundland and India flank a holly-wreathed oval at the top, the text within proclaiming ‘The OVERSEAS CLUB. PATRON: HIS MAJESTY THE KING.’; ‘1915’ appears below. Beneath a Union flag on the left are depicted a British soldier and a British sailor receiving gifts from two girls and a boy.

Its chief objects are. / (1) To help one another. / (2) To render individual service to our Empire. / (3) To draw together in the bond of comradeship British people the world over. / (4) To maintain our Empire’s supremacy upon the seas and in the air.’. In the bottom right-hand corner is an ‘S’, with the explanation: ‘SEAL OF THE OVERSEAS CLUB / General Buildings / Aldwych, London, W.C.’. The text in the centre, with the name inserted in red, reads: ‘Christmas Day Gifts / FROM THE SCHOOL CHILDREN OF THE EMPIRE / This is to Certify / that Herbert Ralph / HAS HELPED TO BRING HAPPINESS ON CHRISTMAS DAY TO OUR BRAVE SAILORS AND SOLDIERS, WHO ARE FIGHTING FOR HONOUR, FREEDOM & JUSTICE.’. Below these words is depicted a small flotilla of naval vessels. || || A certificate issued by the Overseas Club to a schoolboy || 51.5073509,-0.12775829999998223 || London
