Bought at eBay for the price of a latte (and muffin) -these 3 photos purporting to be of a British royal – Anne, Princess Royal. The left and right photos are indubitably her, the middle photo (printed on Fujifilm Crystal
Archive paper -as is the other colour shot) may not be. It shows a well dressed and striking young woman emerging from a Ford Thunderbird sometime in the (late?) 1960s in what looks like a field or orchard with other mostly pretty fancy American cars parked there. It has the feel of a Cindy Sherman performance art photograph and if authentic must have been taken on a tour of America by Anne or while she was on holiday there.
The mouth (and nose) and assured demeanour certainly look like Anne. The provenance is good but such web purchases always have an element of doubt- certainly if it is Anne she is looking uncharacteristically ‘cool’ and it is one of the ‘groovier’ moments of her young life. An online search revealed nothing conclusive especially when coupled with the words ‘Thunderbird.’
Pretty sure that is her. The way I heard it when she was over here she had a Ford Thunderbird but she was having such a good time with it that Duke Edinburgh was told and had the car confiscated — in fact “she had fun, fun, fun till her daddy took her T-Bird away” (I’ll get my coat)
