Lichfield Auctioneers to Auction Queen Mary WW2 ID Card
Published May 20th, 2008
An ID card issued to Queen Mary is to be sold at auction. The National Registration card, numbered ODPH/180/1 and issued on May 22, 1940, is signed “Mary, Her Majesty Queen”.
The three-page document survived because an Army officer assigned to shred cards after the war kept it as a memento. Hanson’s auctioneers of Lichfield, Staffordshire, expect it to fetch £500.
