A famous volunteer force that began as the Local Defense Volunteers in 1940, the Home Guard had a key part to play in Britain's darkest hour. Seated on sandbags, this little fellow is taking a well-earned break with a sandwich and a mug of char, or tea (well, as Napoleon said, an army marches on its stomach). Take a close look at the impressive detail on this khaki-clad figurine from Royal Doulton's Bunnykins World War II Collection...all boots and belt, with the familiar cap, and a sergeant's stripes as well. At ease, Home Guard Bunnykins.
Designed in England, each stoneware Bunnykins figurine is handmade and hand decorated in Bunnykins style by Royal Doulton.
Collecting Royal Doulton Bunnykins is fast becoming a tradition that is passed through generations.
