June 7 1921
19 PORTMAN SQUARE. W. 1.
Dear Walker,
Here with a copy the catalogue of which you have been so magna a pars – with great thanks for all your pains and time.
A good deal of time also in the production of the Harrow pages which are not one of our happiest efforts – but answering the purpose.
They arrived all right
[Truly yours]
HYT[i]
