Grace and Rollo Kingsford-Smith in front of a Dove.
Extract from an email from Bonnie Weinberg (Granddaughter)
"It was taken in 1954 we think. It was the (De Havilland) Dove and they were leaving Toronto when the photo was taken.
Rollo Kingsford-Smith flew in Bomber Command and was the nephew of Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith.
Regards
Bonnie Weinberg"
