EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful Coronation Souvenir Postcard from 1911 commemorates the historic moment when His Majesty King George V was crowned as the Monarch of the United Kingdom and Emperor of India. The inset portrait of King George V, dressed in his regal attire and adorned with the Imperial State Crown, is framed by the Union Jack flag, symbolizing his British heritage and the unity of the British Empire. The date "1911" is prominently displayed at the bottom of the postcard, reminding us of the significance of this event in the early 20th century. The words "God Save the King" are inscribed at the top, reflecting the deep-rooted tradition of the British monarchy and the loyalty of its people. The long-lived melody of the National Anthem, "God Save the King," has been a part of British culture for centuries, and its lyrics continue to resonate with the British people as a symbol of their devotion to their monarch. The noble words "Long live the King" express the hope and expectation for the continued reign and prosperity of the monarchy under the leadership of King George V. As we admire this stunning postcard, we are transported back in time to the grandeur and pageantry of the coronation ceremony, a momentous occasion that marked the beginning of a new era in British history.
