[URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrsfujita/sets/72157603662909250/"]Here[/URL] is an amazing set of postcards and photos of various Danish royals for your enjoyment. Some of the images are quite rare while others are somewhat familiar such as this [URL="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj201/kategt2/Historical%20Royals/QueenofDenmark.jpg"]image [/URL]of the late reigning couple, Queen Ingrid and King Frederik IX of Denmark.

Enjoy.

Thank you for that link. Some amazing photos, they certainly don't take them like that any more.

You're welcome, sandyn.

I love the image of King Christian X on horseback. The stories of him during WWII... [url=http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj201/kategt2/Historical%20Royals/Christian_X.jpg]riding[/URL] in the streets of Copenhagen reassuring the people that he was still with them and essentially thumbing his nose at the Nazis and Hitler... you gotta love it.
