Graham Kennedy wearing the 'King of television' crown presented to him on 23 December 1969 during his last episode of In Melbourne Tonight (IMT).
Encrusted with faux pearls and lined with satin, the crown was a replica of one worn by King Henry IV of England and restored by the IMT production team for Graham's farewell.
