EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, newlyweds Mr. and Mrs. William Fiske, formerly known as Billy Fiske and Rose Bingham, are seen boarding a plane for their honeymoon in France. The image, taken in September 1938, captures the excitement and joy of the moment as the couple embarks on their new life together. Billy Fiske, a bobsled champion and renowned Cresta rider, had tied the knot with Rose Bingham, who would later become the Countess of Warwick, in a beautiful ceremony held in Maidenhead. The couple's wedding had been the talk of the town, with the press eagerly reporting on the details of their big day. Now, as they prepare to fly off to France, the newlyweds are all smiles, with Rose looking radiant in her bridal attire and Billy looking dapper in his suit. The plane's propellers spin behind them, a symbol of the adventure that lies ahead. The year 1938 was a significant one for the Fiske family, as Billy had also made headlines for his impressive performance at the Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, where he finished fourth in the bobsled competition. His athletic achievements had earned him a place in the annals of sports history, and his marriage to Rose added a new chapter to his already exciting life story. As they take off into the clear blue sky, the newlyweds are filled with hope and anticipation for the future. The photograph serves as a testament to their love and happiness, a moment frozen in time that they would cherish for the rest of their lives.
