Thanks for the historical perspective, Brian.  And for the photo.

One of the reviews I read mentioned that Queen Mary was about as warm as a submarine filled with ice cream!

Thank you, Brian. That's exactly the photo I remembered.

In addition to the antique-length dress, Queen Mary also appears to be wearing an old-fashioned "widow's peak" mourning bonnet.
