The Fairfax Archives: House of Windsor Auction
by Murray Crane
Webb’s is running an extensive online auction of photographs of the Royal Family in New Zealand. The photographs are sourced from the Fairfax Media archives, an Aladdin's cave of imagery. Conveniently launched over Queen’s Birthday weekend, the auction is seeing frantic bidding wars erupt over these iconic photographs.
There are over 700 photographs presented in more than 400 lots including dozens of photographs of Princess Diana during the 1983 Royal Visit and my personal favourite of Prince Charles and an unknown admirer.
