| Details |
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh at the wheel of his 3 litre Lagonda drophead coupe, whose Tickford body is finished in 'Edinburgh' green. 'In his capacity as President of the Automobile Association, Prince Philip takes an enthusiastic and practical interest in matters affecting the motoring fraternity.' Apparently the Duke had a special built-in radio telephone so that he could maintain constant communication with Buckingham Palace when on the road, although it is Windsor Castle visible in the background of this picture.
