A Beautiful Gracious Well Beloved Lady -- An Hitherto Unpublished Portrait Of Her Majesty Queen Mary Whose Birthday Is On May 26 -- Loving thoughts will go out towards our Queen on May 26th when she is 70 years of age in 1934. She is here seen wearing on of her favoured lace dresses ivory lace over an ice blue satin slip with ice blue satin bow from the shoulder. Also she is wearing some of her lovely sapphires and diamonds and carries a hand painted fan. Her Majesty has a beautiful collection of fans. Queen Mary wanted her 69th Birthday to pass without any special reminder of it, but King Edward and his brothers I understand, thought that the usual luncheon ay Buckingham Palace should take place. Practically all the grown up members of the Royal Family will be present. Princess Elizabeth will visit their grandmother during the day. February 08, 1937. (Photo by Hay Wrightson).
