| The King city on handover trials on 18th December 1950. It clearly shows the flag signals I commented about, and also shows clearly the respect band for the death of Sir Willie Reardon Smith, who had died on 24th November. It would be somewhat unique to be actually delivered with the the band painted on it: no doubt Sir Willie attended the launch. Mike Jones. |
