life: Here, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of Elizabeth II’s reign, LIFE.com offers a series of informal portraits of the Queen, including several that never ran in the magazine. And while some of these images do convey “oodles of symbolic supremacy,” it’s also worth noting that, in at least a few of these shots, there’s also a flicker of something that one hardly ever associates with Elizabeth: namely, a quite self-aware and yet wry sense of fun. Not published in LIFE. Queen Elizabeth II during her 1966 tour of the Caribbean.

I don’t think I will ever accept an award on behalf of so many people. From Ralph Fiennes to Helena Bonham Carter to Hedwig and Dobby and all of them, this is amazing! We had over 200 cast members and I wish they could all be up here with me now. Sadly, they can’t. Obviously, I share this award, in particular, with Dan and Rupert. Wherever you are, I hope you’re watching and I miss you both dearly. Just thank you! I really, really appreciate it. Thank you!

“The story goes that Ella wanted to play at Mocambo, a very popular club in the 50’s but they wouldn’t book Ella because she was black. Enter sweetheart Marilyn who personally phoned the night club owner and asked him to book Ella immediately, on the agreement that Marilyn would appear at the front table every night Ella sang. She did and the press loved it.”
