Dear All,
May I tap your expertise again ? - this time on the various effigies of
Churchill at Madame Tussaud's.
The Finest Hour site speaks of seven :
On the day of his wedding, Churchill had been honored with the distinction
of appearing as a waxwork effigy at Madame Tussaud’s. It was the first of a
total of seven effigies throughout his life.

On the Web, however, there are several quotations from a book on Madame
Tussaud’s which says there were ten :
The first sculpture of a young Winston Churchill was made in 1908, with a
total of ten made since. Pamela Pilbeam Madame Tussaud: And the History of
Waxworks.
Any comments ?
With all best wishes,
A.C.
