A collection of vintage clothing worn by the children of Queen Victoria is to be auctioned next week.
An assortment of tiny shoes, gloves and socks, dated as early as the 1840s and said to be worth as much as £3,000, will go under the hammer at Kerry Taylor Auctions’ Vintage, Antique Textiles & Passion for Fashion sale on June 15.
They were kept in a wooden box by the children’s nanny, Mary Thurston, who was employed by the royal family for 22 years until 1867.
