Of course, I am sorry for not crediting you properly for that scan, I pulled it from one of our previous discussions on orders. I was trying to find a good sized picture of Princess Marina, wearing all four orders, but sadly could not. Are there any pictures of Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother wearing all four, as she was entitled to do? --Previous Message-- : Many thanks for digging out this picture : Nellie! : : It would be a lovely sight to see if The : Queen wore all three again, however, I doubt : that we ever will, in the name of diplomacy. : : Here are some images of Windsor ladies of : the last century, wearing a whole chest-full : of family orders: : : : : : : : : : : Here Princess Margaret wears 5 (including : the badge of the Royal Victorian Chain) : : : It is Queen Mary, who was eligible to wear : the most family orders (of the highest : class) as had: : - Order of Victoria and Albert (1st Class) : - Order of Edward VII : - Order of George V : - Order of George VI : - Order of Elizabeth II : - Order of the Crown of India : However I have only seen her wear a maximum : of three at any one time, and the only time : she was photographed wearing the Order of : the Crown of India to the Delhi Durbar in : 1911. : : --Previous Message-- : : Ah Boffer, you know how to get me out of my : armchair and off to the books! : India was represented in the full group. : : : : : --Previous Message-- : Interestingly, The Queen was presented with : the Order of the Crown of India in 1947. : However, unlike her sister Princess Margaret : who was presented with the same order at the : same time, I have never seen a picture of : the Queen wear it. : : :
