thanks so much for the photo you've placed which was taken in her appartment in 1968. I've never seen it before and I simply adore it. hope you have any more photo's that were taken around or after that time
You’re very welcome! It is indeed a great picture. It was taken during the interviews with Lord Harewood in June of 1968. So, there’s an entire and long photo shoot of it. To this day, along to that one, I only posted two other pictures from the same days (this and this). I’m going to post all the rest, but gradually and slowly. ;)
