ALS, four pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.5 x 7, Reddish letterhead, July 7. Beaton writes to James Laver, in part: “I don’t know whether its poor etiquette to write a critic about a review of one’s book, but I want, if it is, to transgress enough to thank you for writing such an [sic] Eulogy about the Glam of Fashion—You are such an expert on the whole subject that your tribute meant much more to me than from others. You were the one to say just the things which I hoped might be said, & until now have not appear [sic] in print.” A light paperclip impression to the top edge, light toning, and mild residue from heat exposure to the top left corner, otherwise fine condition.
