by Godden:

This portrait silk, which bears no Grant credit, was registered on 27 February 1901. Examples bear "Rd No. 370718" under the Royal Arms [as the image above]. The card-mount normally measures 9 1/4 inches by 7 inches, but a smaller card measures 7 inches by 5 1/4 inches, the sight size of the silks being 5 1/4 inches by 3 1/4 inches and 4 inches by 2 1/4 inches. The subject was also issued as a postcard.
The early versions of the portrait have the printed title in fancy type [as here]; but some rarer, later examples are mounted on a darker card-mount without any title [see go116 on this web site].
A very rare version is mounted on the same card as HER MAJESTY QUEEN ALEXANDRA [see go4 on this web site].

This silk is the Grant number 106.

This silk portrait is of course a pair with Her Majesty Queen Alexandra [see go20 on this web site].
This silk was registered on 27 February 1901, with registration number 370718.
The same design also occurs as a postcard [see gc4 on this web site] although it has a different registration number.
