« on: September 28, 2005, 07:27:33 pm »
Forgive me for the large file size, but the following article that was most recently featured in the National Geographic October 2005 issue should be of interest to many on this forum:

I collect banknotes depicting Tallships. And to a lesser degree, all watercrafts.

Well, consider this...

The subject of this thread is "The Queen on Banknotes".

BWJM, "That...thing!", as you put it, may well end up as the next "Queen on Banknotes" when QE2 passes on.

Frightening, isn't it?  <Shudder> :o

Here's wishing Queen Elizabeth II a very LONG, healthy happy life... :)
