The wedding of King Baudouin of Belgium and Doña Fabiola de Mora y Aragón took place on Thursday, 15 December 1960 in the Throne Room of the Royal Palace of Brussels and at the Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula. King Baudouin was the eldest son of King Leopold III of Belgium and Princess Astrid of Sweden, while Doña Fabiola was the sixth child of Don Gonzalo de Mora y Fernández, 4th Marqués de Casa Riera, and Doña Blanca de Aragón y Carrillo.
And here it is as it resides in a display near me:
If I remember correctly (which gets harder and harder to do!), this was produced by Norev. I remember going to a "fake flower" shop and buying some tall stuff because the tips were what I needed to make it look as it is photographed above. I think the figures were in the Norev special but that I really can't recall. Enjoy!
(later) I found these pictures on-line of the NOREV model. I guess I must have found/fabricated the figures. Hmmmmm.....
