Original Toronto Star caption: Premier duplessis of Quebec bows low as he greets her majesty and tenders greetings on behalf of his province. This striking picture shows the hands of the Queen and the premier on the point of meeting. She has just stepped from the royal automobile; drawn up outside Chateau Frontenac. The King stands with his back almost to the camera; ready to proceed inside for the banquet given by the province last night.
