EDITORS COMMENTS
This commemorative envelope, issued in France in 1937, marks the historic marriage of Edward, Duke of Windsor, and Mrs. Wallis Warfield Simpson. The Duke, who abdicated the throne as King Edward VIII in December 1936, married the American socialite in a private ceremony at the Château de Château-de-Cantemerle in Monts, near Bordeaux, on June 3, 1937. The marriage was a significant event in European history, as the Duke's decision to marry a divorced woman led to his abdication and the ascension of his brother, George VI, to the throne. The envelope's design features an image of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, dressed in their wedding attire, standing before an ornate fireplace. The Duke wears the uniform of a British army general, while the Duchess is elegantly dressed in a long white gown with a matching veil. The scene is set against the backdrop of the grand Château de Château-de-Cantemerle, adding to the regal and opulent atmosphere of the occasion. The envelope's inscription reads "Edward VIII, Roi d'Angleterre et du Royaume-Uni, et Duchesse de Windsor, Mariage à Monts, 3 Juin 1937," which translates to "Edward VIII, King of England and the United Kingdom, and the Duchess of Windsor, Marriage at Monts, June 3, 1937." This commemorative envelope is a fascinating historical artifact that captures the excitement and intrigue surrounding the Duke and Duchess of Windsor's marriage, which continues to be a subject of interest and debate in the annals of royal history.
