Coronation Grin Grinning Grins Sixth Smile Souvenir 1937
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Coronation Souvenir postcard frame, dating back to 1937, showcases a captivating portrait of a young boy wearing a neat tie, beaming with joy and excitement. The image is a poignant reminder of the historic event that took place that year - the coronation of King George VI. King George VI, the sixth monarch of the House of Windsor, ascended to the throne following the abdication of his brother, Edward VIII. His coronation on May 12, 1937, was a significant moment in British history, marking the beginning of his reign during a time of great change and uncertainty. The young boy in the portrait, with his bright smile and unbridled enthusiasm, embodies the spirit of the Coronation celebrations that swept across the nation. The image, preserved within this elegant souvenir frame, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the monarchy and the sense of unity and pride it instilled in the people of the United Kingdom during the 1930s. The intricately designed frame, which complements the portrait perfectly, adds an air of sophistication and nostalgia to the piece. The 1930s, also known as the "Golden Age" of postcards, was a time when these small keepsakes were cherished by people as a means of recording and sharing memories. This Coronation Souvenir postcard frame is a prime example of the era's aesthetic and the sentimental value that postcards held for their owners. The portrait and the frame, together, offer a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the coronation of a monarch was a cause for national celebration and a source of pride and unity for the people of the United Kingdom.
