An article in Regarding Place about Vancouver in 1939 by Chuck Davis.
In May 1939 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth (whom we remember as the Queen Mother) visited Vancouver. The city pulled out all the stops, decorating buildings and lining the streets to catch a glimpse of royalty. War was declared four months later on Sept 1. In this image the photographer caught a glimpse of a woman whose mind seems preoccupied with matters beyond patriotism.
