Coronation of George VI -Procession in High Street

The procession for George VI’s coronation continues through the High Street in Handcross with a parade of decorated bicycles.
For another picture of the procession passing the Red Lion click on picture #609.
Click on Large Version for a close up.
Select Open Document to view the parade on decorated vans passing by Robinson Brothers shop. The sign on the first van reads “Long Live the King”, and I think the same slogan has been written in flowers underneath. On top of the van are figures of children dancing around the Maypole.
