EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a memorable moment in Hollywood history, as British acting royalty gathered to mark the occasion of King George VI's visit to the USA in 1939. The regal presence of Greer Garson, Leslie Howard, Vivien Leigh, Brian Aherne, Ronald Coleman, and Basil Rathbone exudes an air of sophistication and glamour. The actors and actresses, who were all at the height of their careers during the 1930s, were known for their captivating performances on both stage and screen. In this image, they are seen gathered around a microphone, poised to broadcast their warm greetings to their monarch and the listening public. The scripts in their hands and the serious expressions on their faces convey a sense of importance and gravity, as they prepare to deliver their messages to the world. The black-and-white photograph, taken by the ILN - Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, transports us back to a bygone era of classic cinema and elegant entertainment. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of these iconic British stars, who continue to captivate audiences with their timeless artistry.
