Hello, My great-great grandfather was H.H. Topakyan (persian consul of new york circa 1900). I have tons of signed portraits, awards, etc in my possession. I have been researching for quite sometime on what looks to be an original photograph of the one you posted above. It is in its original large frame (no glass), and slightly damaged across George V's face. Knowing the extensive collection HH had of high profiles, I had little doubt it was an original. Can you tell me anything more about this photograph in the respect of rarity? Should I be regarding this as a valuable possession or merely a cool souvenir? I would appreciate anything you could tell me. file://localhost/Users/jentiff/Desktop/photo-1.JPG
