Vintage glossy 3.5 x 5.5 postcard photo of a young Evelyn Waugh wearing a bowler hat and holding a cigar, signed in the lower border in fountain pen. The lower border also bears the blindstamp of the photography studio. Reverse of photo addressed in Waugh's own hand, who adds along the left side: "Please do not send book for autograph." In fine condition, with light silvering to darker areas of the image. Photos of Waugh are quite scarce, with this particular example capturing the quintessence of this major 20th-century satirist.
