queen and prince tour fleet street

one of london's oldest newspapers has gotten a new look, and with it, a royal inspection...

...the inspectors were none other than queen elizabeth and prince phillip. on a thursday tour of fleet street, center of london's newspaper industry, the royal couple stopped by aitkens house, home of the evening standard. the occasion was the rolling of the new presses at the standard, one of london's two leading papers.

with the 18 million dollar facility ready to go, the queen was asked to start the presses rolling; and that she did, to the approval of everyone present.

a short time later the first copies were off the press and when one was given to the queen she seemed pleased with her days work.

several shots queen and prince; queen starts presses onlookers applaud; queen inspects first copies off press.
