    Tin of Dubbin Clear leather wax dressing

    Used by Arthur Cecil Douglas Flintoff Mickle, NZ Legion of Frontiersmen, membership number 18716

    Cecil Mickle joined the Legion in the 1920s (approximate date suggested by his membership number 18716). He was present at the funeral of Lieut. Sillitoe in 1930, and in 1955 was awarded the Legion’s Long Service Medal in 1955. This medal was awarded for 15 years’ service. Possible that the discrepancy between the date he joined the Legion and the date he received the award was because the medal was not introduced until 1944.
