The Tata navjotes
Parsee Prakash (Vol. V page 11) notes: "The navjotes of two children Jehangir and Shirin of Ratanji Dadabhai Tata and his French Zoroastrian wife were performed with pomp at their Ridge Road bungalow today on 26th February 1911. The navjote ceremony was performed under the leadership of Vada Dastur of Deccan Sardar Dastur Kekobad Adarbad and Dastur Kaikhushro Jamaspji JamaspAsana of Bombay.” (Source: The Parsi, February 26, 1911. The English translation is mine.) MARZBAN GIARA

May we know the sate of publication of Volume V of Parsee Prakash? Incidentally all Navjotes are memorable events.A photogrpah of the same would be surely there. Does Parsee Parkash have a photo of this Navjote?
