EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a group of eager Boy Scouts proudly sell Coronation programmes to the excited crowds lining the streets of London on the historic day of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation on 2 June 1953. Dressed in their distinctive uniforms, the scouts, with their wide grins and determined expressions, offer the coveted programmes for two shillings and sixpence (half a crown) each. The sense of anticipation and patriotism is palpable as the people, dressed in their Sunday best, eagerly await the royal procession. In the background, a police sergeant, adorned with a row of medals, stands watch over the scene. His stern yet reassuring presence adds to the sense of order and security amidst the bustling crowd. The photograph captures the spirit of the era, with its traditional British values of community, duty, and respect for the monarchy on full display. The Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II was a significant event in British history, marking the official start of her reign. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1950s and the excitement and pageantry of this momentous occasion. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Boy Scouts and their role in the fabric of British society, as well as the deep-rooted sense of patriotism and tradition that continues to this day.
