Yesterday I passed by a Video on Youtube with the Name :

Familiile regala romana si imperiala rusa la Constanta, 1914

First it shows some Landscape of Constanta but then it shows in excellent Quality ( !!! 1914 !!!) the Arrival of the Imperial Family NAOTMAA by Ship and their Greeting with the Romanian royal Family.
 
For me its a jewel, so I like to let you know :-)))

29 October 2008- On this day  in 1875  Marie of Edinburgh, queen of Romania (d. 1938)  was born at Eastwell Park in Kent, the eldest daughter of Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh and Grand Duchess Marie Alexandrovna of Russia.

there are several different poses taken of Missy in her wedding gown. One is in "The Last Romantic," in a frame Nando kept on his desk. 

They are posted throughout the forum. I havent got time to scan right now...but here is one i have on my computer, lifted from here probably.




I know ella has some more.

Is this the same necklace (cross one) that is also seen in her aunt Beatrice's wedding pictures? Or is it a different necklace? Do any of those cross necklaces survive today? The necklace Marie is wearing looks alot like Beatrice's.

It should be lost in russia with the rest of Missy's jewels...

She never regretted them too much tho 

I think it's a very similar necklace, not the same.

[Eric_Lowe]

Well...She did. As most of them had sentimental value (one tiara was given to her by her father, Duke of Edinburgh).

Can you explain what happened with Missy's jewels again? I can't recall (the lost in Russia part).

[Eric_Lowe]

Both Missy & VMH deposited their jewels in Russia for safe-keeping. When the Communist came to power in Russia, those jewels were seized and never seen again.

Does anyone have a larger version of this pic ? I'd love to see that hat properly
