Stephen Tennant, Cicely Fox Smith, George Dawera and a painter sketch
Estimate £50-80

Leaves from a Misionary's Notebook by Stephen Tennant. This copy withdrawn from a church library, having been considered 'not suitable'. This info gleaned from a hand-written note attached to first page. Apparently this is a limited edition of 125 but curiously not numbered or signed. Personalised in fountain pen and dated 1945. Yellow cloth fair-good condition. Boards and frontispiece discoloured, pages beginning to come away from spine in the centre of the book. Page edges discoloured
