The first visit to Australia by a Queen (Elizabeth II)

La prima visita in Australia da Regina.(1954)

The first visit to Australia by a reigning Monarch.
Melbourne and surrounds 1954, People, building decorations (day and night), parade of floats and a very young Queen Elizabeth II.
Silent movie, a social historians feast.
Footnote: Most film taken of the tour was in B&W, but very little in COLOR.
This makes it very rare. Enjoy
