ORIGINAL SKETCHES SENT AS A REPLY TO A LETTER
BEERBOHM
(Sir H. Max, 1872-1956, Humorist & Caricaturist)
Page of five pencil caricature sketches
on the blank last sheet of an Autograph Letter from Ethell STYAN in which she asks him if he "could do a drawing for me to give Lord Howard de Walden for a wedding present. I can think of nothing more suitable nor applicable to him that that - but I can't afford more than ten guineas for it. Can that be done? Sickert would approve this frank & brutal bargain. I do hope you are going to give us some more of Julenka's exploits. She has been refreshing. Lord Howard is to be married on the 20th inst. I have left it till late of course ...", on the verso of the 3rd side are 5 sketches of heads of men, mostly with rather prominent noses in caricature expressions, 4 sides 8vo., in total, 30 South Street Mayfair headed paper, 11th February

Autograph Letter Signed to the Revd. (Sir) James Marchant, 1867-1956,
saying he is "in entire agreement with Mr. St Loe Strachey's speech; he expresses the masculine ideas of men who loathe lubricity while they have no sympathy at all with the provincial excesses of Puritanism ... I rejoice in your successful prosecution of an obscene paper", telling how in Southern Ireland "the Roman Catholics ... where they cannot influence newsreaders", seize the "disgusting Sunday newspapers from England" from the train "& publicly burn them", and describing a vulgar china ornament he saw for sale in Swanage, "the police ... have no power ... is it really impossible to suppress such ... exhibition ?", 3 sides 8vo., Newton Cottage, Swanage, no date, c. March
