EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Prince Albert, later known as King George VI, graces the occasion of the official opening of the new Town Hall in the fashionable district of Marylebone, London, in 1920. The Prince, who was then the Duke of York, is warmly welcomed by Alderman and Mrs. Duncan Watson, the Mayor and Mayoress of Marylebone, as they extend their hands in greeting. Upon arriving, the Prince inspected a guard of honor before proceeding to the grand entrance of the new Town Hall. With great ceremony, he is presented with a golden key, symbolizing his role as the official opener of the building. The key, poised in his hand, is ready to turn in the lock of the magnificent door, marking the formal beginning of the Town Hall's new era. The Town Hall, an architectural marvel of its time, stands proudly in the background, its intricate details and grandeur on full display. The event was a significant moment in the history of Marylebone, as the new Town Hall served as the local seat of government and a hub for community activities. The Prince's presence added an air of grandeur and importance to the occasion, making it a memorable day for the residents of Marylebone. This photograph captures the essence of the event, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a window into the rich history of this London district.
