Westminster Bridge

A watercolour from just after WW2 showing Westminster Bridge and a tug with an articulated funnel steaming upstream.

This postcard was posted on 28th April 1948 and the sender who was on holiday in London from Yorkshire describes how she watched 'the procession' from a Fleet Street window. On 26th April King George VI and Queen Elizabeth rode in state to St. Paul's Cathedral to mark their Silver Wedding anniversary.
