if it was 1988, then I don't think it was in Denmark? It could have been a 20th celebration for Benedikte & Richard's wedding, but I don't think so (they don't seem to celebrate the 20th anniversaries). It might have been in Sweden, but I don't know.

I wish we had more and better photos from prior to 2000. It's always so hard to find things from the 90s and prior.
 
I found this very cute photograph of King Constantine baby wearing the traditional uniform of the "Evzones"

Interesting! Never seen HM wearing her elder sister´s tiara before! It suits her excellent!

I think this is the royal couple´s only incoming state visit, 1965 by the tunesian president and his wife:

"On August 13, 1960, the Crown Prince Konstantinos, delivered at a ceremony at the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens, the Olympic Flame of 17th Olympiad of the modern era, held in Rome from 25 August until 11 September. A few days later he departed for Rome with the crew taking part in the Olympics."

I know I have seen this "interesting" photo long before somewhere. It is definitely a fake from one of the young King´s first official portraits after his accession.:whistling:

I am aware of that. Altered photos done in this faux-Warhol style look like something from the animated bits of Monty Python - I was half expecting the eyes to move and bugs to start coming out of the ears! I posted the article mostly because I thought the picture was creepy and the story in my the article was interesting. :)

This video remainds me when I passed holidays in Greece, I adore this country, the bluesky, the musik and the food
Anne Marie and Contantine was the most beautiful young royal couple in the years 64; I never found again a so most glamorous couple again. they were young 18 for queen Anne Marie and 24 for the king Constantin

The girl is Theodora, that is obvious, I would say that these photos are taken in Baqueira Beret, because in the past the Spanish royal family received the year in this Spanish ski resort
 
As yesterday 8 September back 1960, the then Crown Prince Konstantinos won the gold medal in sailing, with a Dragon type, during the Olympic Games in Rome. The then 20-year-old Constantinos had as a crew on the ship "Nireus" Odysseas Eskitzoglou and Giorgos Zaimis.



Pavlos celebrates the UK Mother's Day with a lovely picture of the family of 4 back 1968
