[Proclamation of the accession of H. M. Queen Elizabeth II], 1952-02-06

 Item
Reference Code: GBR/0115/RCS/Y3011XX/13
Scope and Contents

There is no inscription on the print, but judging by the nature of the ceremony and the black arm bands worn by the participants, this photograph was taken during Queen Elizabeth's accession ceremony and shows guards of soldiers. The print is stamped on the reverse with 'Photo by Hall', but is scored out, presumably by the Bermuda News Bureau.
