Description: Vintage 1949 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Planned to Visit Australia Trinket Tray. Chips on back edges of tray. Crazing and a few tiny marks - see pics. On March 6, 1948 it was announced that the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth would embark on a royal tour of Australia and New Zealand the following spring, accompanied by their daughter Princess Margaret. Plans were already well advanced when, on November 23, it was announced that the tour would have to be cancelled owing to the King's declining health. An attempt to reschedule the tour, in scaled-back form, for early 1952 also floundered and plans for Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip to visit instead were put on hold when the King died in February of that year.
