Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee is underway in London.
She’s held the throne for 60 years!
Her coronation took place on June 2, 1953.
The monarch’s predecessor was her father, King George VI.
He was crowned King in 1937 and that’s where this souvenir guide comes in.
It’s 66-pages and notes where national celebrations were to take place.
The guide was edited by Sir John Hammerton.
