| Description: | GAZETTE "Olympia. Princess Elizabeth - thoroughly enjoys herself at the Royal Tournament." Olympia, London Sailors climb up ropes hung high in the ceiling of Olympia's arena. They are demonstrating the skills they would traditionally use to climb rigging. They are up among the massive lights (chandeliers) and loudspeakers. Its looks very surreal. The sailors hang off the ropes in a synchronized display. Dark LS of Prince Albert (Duke of York, later King George VI), Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II) and her mother the Duchess of York (later Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother). They are sitting with others in the royal box and are applauding the display. More shots of the impressive display. The men slowly lower themselves down the ropes to the floor - upside down! | |
