The Macallan Fine & Rare 1947
1947
THE YEAR THAT WAS
US Congress proceedings are televised for the first time, and, after 90 years of British rule, both Pakistan and India gain their independence. In New York, Edwin Land demonstrates his new Polaroid Land Camera, while the first Volkswagen Beetle arrives in the US. The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank is published and, in the UK, Princess Elizabeth marries the Duke of Edinburgh.
