Autograph Letter Signed to Eileen Cond, in flirtatious style,
saying I'm glad I'm not a museum piece... You are very right to be chaperoned by Meryl... when meeting such dangerous people as authors... Who is the lucky gentleman with you ? in the Spanish photograph, he talks of his young sons at school, of writing a libretto, of having written 'Lob's Pound' as a play at the same time as a novel... Let me know if ever there's a chance of meeting you (and of course Meryl!), 2 sides 4to., 18 Embankment Residences, Cheyne Walk, 19th November
Eileen Cond was a book collector who sent out her bookplate to her favourite authors, many of whom signed and returned them to her. Among the most notable was Ian Fleming.
