It is cheering to know that political and protest banners are still being sewn and painted by hand today. Ed Hall is a well-known maker who has been creating banners for thirty years; this one was made for Unite South East Women. It is also possible to make your own  banner, guided by Alice Gabb who has been, "inspired by the incredibly rich history of peace campaigning, secret societies and social justice movements within the U.K" and who runs workshops.
