It's fairly easy to find, go to rexfeatures.com, click on Stock-Archive, then put Queen Mother 1969 in the search box. What seems to be hard is to do anything with the picture.
Rex Features thinks it's from 1969, but it's not, it's 1968.
Hope that helps.

: I recently noticed that Rex Features, the

: Anyway the photo is 1969:270064r JWI
: The caption reads 'Queen Mother at the Order

: which obviously hardly makes sense.
: The event is actually the Diplomatic
: Reception on 27 November 1968 at Buckingham
: Palace which was filmed and photographed for
: the 1969 'Royal Family' film.
: The Queen Mother didn't wear all 5rows of
: Mrs Greville's vast necklace very often.
: In fact without this picture you might well
: think that the State Banquet for President
: de Gaulle in April 1960 was the last
: occasion. This pushes on her wearing it by
: nearly a decade.
