2 June is the anniversary of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. She was crowned at Westminster Abbey in 1953, and the glamour and colour of the event was reported in The Children’s Newspaper as thoroughly as any adult newspaper.
Look and Learn celebrated her 10th anniversary of Elizabeth’s accession to the throne in 1962.
