The Knowledge on this forum is so impressive that I'm sure you will be able to help me. I would like you to look at the following text from an email off my brother;
----------------------
One rainy weekend in about 1992/3, in an effort to relieve my boredom and get out of the rain, I purchased a second hand book from a little shop in Mablethorpe (Lincs) called \"King Emperor\'s Jubilee 1910 1935\" by F G H Salusbury

No doubt many thousands were printed but I was intrigued mainly by the additional contents within the book.

My copy contained two pages of rough pen sketches stuck to two pages.

First page had 3 sketches entitled  
Queen Alexandra
Whole family on Picnic
Alexis,Olga,Tatiana,Marie - Brother and Sister and YOU

Second page had 6 sketches
The Grand Duchess Marie Pavlovna - Aunt Miechen
The Duchess of cumberland - Aunt Thyra
The King of Norway - Uncle Hans
The Old King of England - Uncle Bertie
The Queen of Norway - Aunt Swan
Anastasia

I\'m trying to find out who could have drawn these and who, YOU , is?
Can you help?
------------------------------------------------

I appreciate that, like me you will need to see the images and I am currently trying to get him to scan them into a computer, but he's a bit of a luddite! I'll see what I can do.

My brother seems to think that, 'You' is George V and the drawer has to be a member of the family by refering to the King??? as 'You'.

Any suggestions... without seeing anything :)

Thanks in anticipation
