EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph from the annals of British history, members of the Royal Family are seen examining African furs at the British Industries Fair held at Olympia, London on February 23, 1932. The image captures a moment of curiosity and fascination as the royals inspect the exotic hides with great interest. From left to right, we see Albert, Duke of York, who would later become King George VI in 1936, Prince George, Duke of Kent, Elizabeth, Duchess of York (later known as the Queen Mother), and Queen Mary. The unidentified male in the group is believed to be an official or representative from the fur industry. The British Industries Fair was an annual event showcasing the latest industrial innovations and products from across the United Kingdom. The presence of the Royal Family at the fair was a significant boost to the morale and prestige of the participating companies. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the role of the monarchy in promoting British industry and commerce during the interwar period. The African furs on display in the photograph were likely sourced from British colonies in Africa, reflecting the extensive reach of the British Empire at the time. The royals' close examination of the hides underscores the importance of the fur trade in the global economy and the role it played in shaping international relations during the early 20th century. This image, with its rich historical context, offers a unique perspective on the intersection of royalty, industry, and colonialism in Britain's past.
