 (no, the woman on the Drag isn't the Queen.) |
UPDATE from its New Owner driving this awesome team: "We
had a wonderful day at the Royal Windsor Horse Show and drove
through Her Majesty the Queens private grounds at Windsor Castle
and met both Her Majesty and Prince Philip whilst on the Park
Drag. HRH Prince Philip commenting "absolutely splendid
- well done" as we passed by. Followed this by a Coaching
Dinner at Comberemere Barracks as guest of the Officer Commanding
the Household Cavalry. A magical day. "
From the Estate of Gene
Bauer
A stately example of the highest
of quality, this magnificent coach is authenticated to have been
made for the Earl LD. Lonsdale's. It is a superb vehicle of historic
importance, in excellent condition built by Barker & Co.
(London).
