EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this black-and-white print from November 24th, 1966, we witness a momentous occasion as Members of Parliament (MPs) and esteemed Cunard officials gather at the renowned John Brown Shipyard in Clydebank, Scotland. Their purpose? To receive an eagerly anticipated progress report on the majestic Q4 liner, later christened the iconic Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2). The image showcases a distinguished group of individuals standing proudly in front of the massive vessel that would soon grace the world's oceans. Notable figures such as Lord Aberconway and Sir Basil Smallpiece flank MPs like Mr Emmanuel Shinwell, all exuding an air of anticipation mixed with pride. As they inspect every inch of this engineering marvel, one can only imagine their excitement for what lay ahead – a ship that would become synonymous with luxury travel and maritime excellence. The QE2 would go on to capture hearts worldwide with its grandeur and elegance. This photograph not only captures a significant moment in history but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and ambition. It reminds us of our boundless capacity to conquer vast oceans through innovation and determination. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this remarkable snapshot invites us to step back into the vibrant era of the 1960s when ocean liners were revered symbols of adventure and sophistication.
