Guy Fawkes Night or Bonfire Night, is an annual commemoration observed on 5 November, primarily in Great Britain. It celebrates the failure of the Gunpowder Plot of 5 November 1605 as Guy Fawkes was discovered before he could assassinate the King by blowing up the Parliament ,
After WWII Guy Fawkes Night became a domestic celebration, and children often congregated on street corners, accompanied by their own effigy of Guy Fawkes. This was sometimes ornately dressed and sometimes a barely recognisable bundle of rags stuffed with whatever filling was suitable. Collecting money was a popular reason for their creation, the children taking their effigy from door to door, or displaying it on street corners calling 'a penny for the guy'.
