The Queen visits Manchester, 16th May 1968
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the Manchester Evening News Archive's Memory Lane Prints collection, we are transported back to a momentous day in history. On the 16th of May 1968, amidst a typical British downpour, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II graced the city of Manchester with her regal presence. Dressed impeccably in a stylish hat and elegant attire befitting her royal status, The Queen stands tall and composed. Despite the relentless rain pouring down upon her, she holds an umbrella firmly in hand as if undeterred by the weather's attempt to dampen spirits. This image captures not only a significant visit by one of Britain's most beloved monarchs but also showcases Her Majesty's unwavering dedication to duty and connection with her people. As she walks through the streets of Manchester, surrounded by loyal subjects eagerly awaiting a glimpse of their queen, it is evident that even adverse conditions cannot diminish the warmth and admiration felt towards her. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of an era long gone – the swinging sixties – when fashion was bold and society was rapidly changing. It encapsulates both royalty and resilience against nature’s elements within its frame. Preserved for posterity through Memory Lane Prints' meticulous archiving efforts, this snapshot allows us to relive an iconic moment in time when The Queen brought grace and grandeur to rainy Manchester on that memorable day in May 1968.
