“The design of the exterior of the trailer has been governed by the desire to keep the structure strong and simple, at the same time expressing the function of the vehicle while stationary, as well as in motion. The top surface will be bright aluminum to reflect the sun’s rays and minimize the heat. The lower portion of the walls will be painted a light blue. Operating aluminum louvres protect the double glazed, fixed windows from the sun and may be closed at night or during a storm. ...The salon, 10’9” wide and 19’ long provides seating for eleven persons. His Royal Highness’ chair is indicated at the center back.”
