EDITORS COMMENTS
This souvenir postcard commemorates the historic wedding of Princess Elizabeth and Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten, which took place on November 20, 1947, at the revered Westminster Abbey in London. The young couple, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh, exuded radiance and joy as they exchanged vows in the grand religious ceremony. Dressed in an elegant white gown designed by Norman Hartnell, the future queen looked resplendent, while her groom donned the uniform of the Royal Navy, reflecting his military background. The wedding was a momentous occasion not only for the British monarchy but also for the nation, as it marked the end of World War II and the beginning of a new era. This postcard serves as a cherished memento of this significant day in history, capturing the essence of the royal wedding and the hope and optimism it brought to the people of Britain and beyond.
