Queen Elizabeth II's coronation.

This is a 1953 Master Maps pictorial map of London highlighting the route of the Royal Procession following Queen Elizabeth II's coronation.
A Closer Look
Red outlining highlights the route of the Royal Procession from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey, then from Westminster Abbey through London past Hyde Park returning to Buckingham Palace. Pictorial illustrations depict London's landmarks with identifying banners: Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, the National Gallery, St. Martin's in the Fields, the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, and Tower Bridge. The armorial crests of London's many districts are incorporated into the border.
Verso Content
A portrait of Queen Elizabeth II (1926 - 2022) appears near center on the verso, with portraits of her family and a family tree to both sides and below. Armorial crests of the British Commonwealth act as a border.
