Durhan Miner Goes To Palace Party - Jackson Hewitson waves a jovial response to the cheering send-off given him as he left the working Men's club and institute in Clerkenwell Road, London, for Buckingham Palace to-day. Rubbing shoulders with high society at Buckingham Palace to-day (Thursday) was burly Jackson Hewitson, 54, a guest with the tell-tale blue specks of a hard and honourable calling on hands and face. Jackson - forty years in the Durham mines - was there to 'Represent the working lad' at the Garden Party given by the King and Queen. July 20, 1950. (Photo by Reuterphoto).
