| Description: | "THE KING IN MANCHESTER - His Majesty opens New Library and lays foundation stone of Town Hall Extension." Manchester, Lancashire. A car with King George V and Queen Mary in, slowly moving through crowded Manchester street. King waves his top hat from the car. Mayor addresses the crowd presumably to announce the King. King addresses the crowd, but his words are lost in the reverberation. Mayor presents the King with two sets of silver drums. Good shot of King with a soldier. A nice shot of the King and the Queen in front of a building, presumably the Town Hall. King and Queen enter the building. | |
