On 19 August 1919, Edward, Prince of Wales visited Prince Edward Island as part of his first tour of Canada. The visit was combined with a celebration of victory in World War I and "soldier joy days". Arriving at 10 a.m. the Prince was met at the main wharf in Charlottetown where he inspected the guard of honour. This was followed by a parade of returned veterans to the Legislative Building for the presentation of addresses to His Majesty. The parade reformed to march on to Victoria Park for the presentation of medals, followed by lunch at Prince of Wales College. The afternoon was given over to visits to a fox farm, the experimental farm, horse races, tree planting, and a garden party at Brighton Villa. The Prince departed at 6 p.m.

The photograph shows King George VI and Queen Elizabeth outside of Province House in Charlottetown during their visit to Prince Edward Island on 14 June 1939. The King and Queen can be seen shaking hands with a group of war veterans. The man shaking the Queen's hand in the photograph is Nicholas Murphy.

The King and Queen's first stop in Canada was Quebec City. On 14 June 1939, near the end of their tour, the royal couple visited Charlottetown, PEI.
