THE BRITISH ROYAL FAMILY: KING GEORGE VI, QUEEN
ELIZABETH, ELIZABETH II, and MARGARET
All four members of the family signed this album cover specially made for recordings
that commemorated Elizabeth II's 16th birthday.
Album Cover Signed: "George R.I.", "Elizabeth R.", "Elizabeth", and "Margaret". A rare set
of six BBC records, pressed after a Royal Command Performance of the radio show It's That
Man Again (1939-1949). The show was the first Royal Command Performance of a
radio show ever. The show was presented on April 21, 1942, the day of Elizabeth II's 16th
birthday. The signed album was given to the star of the show Tommy Handley after the
performance at Windsor Castle - the two princesses' home for five years during WWII. It's
That Man Again satirized the rule of Adolf Hitler and boosted morale of the British home front
during the war. A Royal Command Performance is when the reigning monarch specifically
requests a show. Before this instance, it was typically theatrical or orchestral in medium.
Includes six records that are of the performance on that date. Album cover toned and lightly
worn. Frame lightly chipped. Otherwise, fine condition. Framed to an overall size of 37½ x
31¾.
