I think that this may have been the gift of the ship builders when HRH launched the oil tanker, British Soldier, at the end of June 1954.
For many years this brooch was a favourite, but I have not spotted it in recent photos. Has any one spotted it since the 1970s?
Getty dates this photo to 2 September 1954
In the early 1970s --probably 1971.
