Queen Elizabeth II (wearing the Burmese Ruby Tiara and Baring Ruby Necklace with Queen Mary’s Ruby Floret Earrings) attends a Royal Gala Performance at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden as pert of her Silver Jubilee celebrations on this day in 1977. In the background, you can spot her aunt, Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester (wearing the Gloucester Honeysuckle Tiara).
I remember the silver crown patch we were given in Brownies that year to commemorate the Jubilee. I lived in Montreal back then.
That’s really cool! Do you still have it?
No, unfortunately.
