11 St Vincent
11. Bolivia - I think St.Vincent and the Grenadines has a breadfruit leaf.
Glasman is right about the ST Vincent flag. Sorry
Question Author
I'd come to the same conclusion: that St V & G features merely a leaf - not the tree.
12, I think its treason.
147 I think it was Mickey Mouse
Question Author
28. An inspired guess points to treason but I can't find anything in print.

28. There was an earlier guess at Topolino (Mickey Mouse)
11. For confirmation of Bolivia : the flag contains a coat of arms, I found a source which states: 'The arms consist of an oval shield depicting a landscape with a stylized illustration of Mount Potosi in bright sunshine and, in the foreground, a South American alpaca, a breadfruit tree, and a wheat sheaf, with a forest and a house in the middle distance.'
123. 'The African Queen' by C.S. Forester
131. You already have it, it's Rayonism :-)

No problems Gordon 67, I've had one of those afternoons/ early evenings , 'stuck in', waiting for tradesmen to call to give an 'estimate'. Glad to have something to pass the time :-)
