What about buying it from me in two or three instalments That could be managed all right.

391941874-1948 Head of the Liverpool School of Architecture thanking him for "sending me the Cripps Petition. Certainly I will sign it and I shall ask Gavin what he thinks about it. But not easy for usto get more signatures - however I'll see about it. I have not been back to Brightonsince I saw you. I think I can finishe that drawing of the front without goig back. Lutyens looked fine at the RA banquet and I liked very much his air of courtesy and hospitality without pompousness. From where I was unfortunately he was not very audible so. I only mastered his speech next morning but don't tell him this!. I think a school of traditional architecture is much needed in London when I see the full horror of that horrible new side of Berkeley Square. There are lots of good things to pick out in the RA - the total effect is a jumble but I don't see how you can avoid that especially in these days. Stephen I'm glad to say sold his big picture on Private View day. I haven't forgotten the kind promise of yourself and your friend to buy drawings for my 'Casals Fund'." with a postscript that he has "a very elaborate drawing of John Brown's Shipyard Clydebank with the 'Queen Elizabeth' building at the R.A." 2 sides 4to. with original autograph envelope Grayflete Ferry Hinksey Oxford 1st May In early 1939 Stafford Cripps 1869-1952 Politician was expelled from the Labour Party for his advocacy of a Popular Front with the Communist Party the Independent Labour Party the Liberal Party and anti-appeasement Conservatives.

391921874-1948 Head of the Liverpool School of Architecture saying that "Encouraged by Mary I am venturing to bother you with this prospectus of my Spanish book. It reproduces really magnificently some 180 of my drawings - altogether a terrific work! Two original etchings also. It may amuse you - I hope you may find a moment in London to have a look at the book itself. Mary suggests to me that your friend Mr Peter Jones of Liverpool might be interested to hear of the book so I enclose a second prospectus. We are all here in Norfolk for the health of younger son Gavin - he has had a long fight with tuberculosis but I am glad to say is ever so much better now only has to be careful & this Norfolk air suits him. he is getting attention at the Sanatorium at Mundesley." and ends with the hope that "your own health is much improved" 1 side 4to.

391961874-1948 Head of the Liverpool School of Architecture saying that he has "been working in the West of Scotland and have now transferred to the East. Weather very cold & east windy & the artist not so young as he was. But it is very quiet here at present which is a great blessing. Of course I'd be very glad to oblige you or your friend in any way i could. But my position is that every sketch I do and its copyright belongs to the Admiralty and I have no power at all to give any 'permissions'! I feel sure some sketch of mine would be available for the 'calendar' purpose. for a small fee. The Admiralty and Ministry of Information work together in the matter. I send all my drawings direct to Gleadowe Admiralty Whitehall & that is the end of the matter as far as I am concerned. I sent Gleadowe lately a number of drawings - feel sure you would find a suitable one amongst them. Ask him or Francis about it. Your house is certainly delightful and I much want to see it. My prayers for it escaping the bombs." next to his signature he has put "Major Sir Muirhead Bone R.M." 2 sides 8vo. with original autograph envelope Admiral Superintendent's House Rosyth Dunfermline 14th October At the outbreak of the Second World War Muirhead Bone was appointed a member of the War Artists' Advisory Committee and also became a full-time salaried artist to the Ministry of Information specialising in Admiralty subjects.
