Stereoscope card showing King Edward VII of Britain and Queen Alexandra at Buckingham Palace in 1903. The sepia photographs show guests saluting the King and Queen, including a member of the King's Guard. Also in the crowd are men in traditional South Asian dress, a recognition of the British imperial rule of India during King Edward's reign. Underneath the photographs is a description that states "Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, saluted by their royal guests, Buckingham Palace, London". Printed on the left of the card is the name of the publisher Underwood & Underwood, and to the right is the trademark of Sun Sculpture.
