From the Macqueen-Pope papers (see his entry in the Oxford DNB). 1p, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded once, with one dogeared corner. He thanks him for ‘having mentioned my name in connection with the playbills, prints, etc., needed for the redecoration of the Whitbread house in Covent Garden’. He believes MP will be ‘seeing my selection within the next few days’, and hopes that, ‘in general, you will approve of it’. He assumes that MP will be writing the booklet that accompanies the collection, and asks him to make a note ‘for Miss Halford’ of any item he’d like to see represented. ‘I know, for instance, that there is nothing about the O.P. riots but I am already on the track of some posters.’
