Material used in Westminster Abbey during the coronation of King George VI will be used in the two chairs being made for the royal visit to Queen's Park. Skilled craftsmen are working in Rawlinson's shops at the building of the two chairs. The upholstery will be royal blue embalzoned with gold crowns. Using the old speaker's chair as a model; S. Siros; J. P. Haughey and H. H. French (Left) are building the chairs. [Incomplete]
