Old Bill quickly became a beloved figure among soldiers, and his image was reproduced in various forms, including this charming doll. The Old Bill mascot doll, with its intricately detailed features and authentic military uniform, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the time. The doll's registration number, 662457, is a reminder of its historical significance and the rich military history it represents. The commemorative ware Old Bill doll was produced to honor the bravery and resilience of the soldiers who served during World War I. The doll's enduring popularity is a testament to the enduring impact of Bairnsfather's cartoons and the Old Bill character on the morale of the troops.
