First anniversary of Prince Rainier’s accession to the throne. Monaco-Ville 1951. Cars: Cadillac 1949 ? ("CADILLAC" in block letters above front fender spear). left Lincoln Cosmopolitan 1950 (536 produced)

For the first anniversary of his accession to the throne in Monaco-Ville, 1951, Prince Rainier ascends a wide set of stone steps. Clad in a formal military uniform with numerous medals, a red and white sash, and white gloves, he carries a ceremonial sword. He is followed by his entourage, while a line of uniformed guards in distinctive red and white hats stands at attention. In the midground, a 1950 Lincoln Cosmopolitan is parked near a 1949 Cadillac, set against the scenic backdrop of the Mediterranean coast under a bright sky.
