Description
Alan G. Gordon was a second-year forestry student when he took this photo of then Princess Elizabeth on the UNB campus.

Prince Philip intervened, suggesting that the photographer’s camera be returned, and it was, 6 November 1951. Courtesy of UNB Archives and Special Collections. Used with the permission of Alan G.
