The coronation procession seen from above

Looking down from a great height, the coronation procession winds along a broad street: mounted escorts and carriages move between two unbroken lines of soldiers, behind whom crowds fill the pavements and stands to the walls of tall, flag-hung buildings. The procession of 12 May 1937 took the king and queen back from Westminster Abbey by a long route through the West End, watched by crowds that had waited through the night.
