Photographs taken by A J Sylvester of David Lloyd George, his families and entourage. The majority are of motoring holidays and cruises to mainland Europe. Included are his cruise on 'Sabrina' in 1929 and recalled in chapter 14 of 'The Real Lloyd George' by A J Sylvester (London, 1947).Others are of D Ll G's estate at Churt.
Most photos in this album are of a motor-tour to France (and possibly Italy) in 1929 by the Lloyd George family - David, Margaret, Megan, Gwilym and his wife Edna. Mrs Evelyn Sylvester also accompanied them. Many are of a tour to First World War battlefields believed to be related to Major Gwilym Lloyd George's military service.

Lloyd George is about to enter a car parked on the side of the road in an alpine setting. A young girl appears to be offering him a bunch of flowers. This may be the incident referred to by Sylvester on p185 of 'The Real Lloyd George' "...while enjoying a picnic tea peasant children presented us with bunches of Edelweiss. L.G. was thrilled and insisted on speaking to the children and giving each a present of money."
