Hello york 16,

I believe there are two varieties of card, I have the one you have posted and I think but am not positive the other shows H.M.KGV in either civilian attire or a different uniform.

Hi again John,

I have to apologise, as my memory failed me (age plus a nasty case of the flu) the card I have is the other one that shows the King wearing a khaki Service tunic with cap and sam browne, the image of Queen Mary is unchanged.
