Dambusters interest a 617 Dambuster Squadron Plaque and a pair of Binoculars with leather case, this with brass plaque "Michael Redgrave CBE from Barnes Wallis CBE, I used these at Recover in 1943" possibly therefore a gift used in the famous film "Dambusters" in which Michael Redgrave portrayed Barnes Wallis, or shortly after, both later Knighted. Sir Barnes Wallis was a gifted designer and apart from the Bouncing Bomb he also designed the Wellington Bomber. Sir Michael Redgrave needs no introduction.  Vendor believes these were raffled for the RAFA after the release of the film.
