Queen Elizabeth II coronation clippings

Image
In honor of Queen Elizabeth II, I thought I would share some newspaper clippings about her coronation. They were collected at the same times as many Adrian, Michigan, history newspaper clippings were pasted by an unidentified person into an unassuming scrapbook. All of the clippings are now faded, acidic, and tattered. One clipping is about the funeral of her father, George VI. These are the only primary sources we have in the Clarke related to her late majesty because we do not collect royal history. The only reason we have them is because they were pasted into the middle of the Adrian  scrapbook.
