Typed letter signed by Gibson, together with printed copy of the League's thirty-sixth annual report, and unsigned carbon copies of reply from the Secretary, Royal Society of Arts.
Mrs Gibson, whose husband was Vice-Chairman of the League, died in 1966. Her letter (one page, quarto, very good apart from rust stain from paperclip) explains that the League is 'at present in temporary premises' and 'without accommodation for its Annual General Meeting' in November ('Her Grace the Duchess of Beaufort is to preside.'), and asks if 'your Society of its kindness, could find it possible to lend a room for the Meeting'. Points out that 'this organisation is over 40 years old', and asks for details of hiring fee. Signed 'Myra Gibson'. The Secretary replies (one page, octavo, good but creased and with minor rust stain) that 'much as we should like to help you [...] I am afraid that our regulations will not permit us to allow the use of our Lecture Hall for your particular purpose.' The report (19 pages, quarto, good but on discoloured paper and with minor fraying to first leaf) is stamped 'THE LEAGUE OF REMEMBRANCE (1914-45) | 32, GREAT ORMOND STREET, LONDON, W.C.1.' On the cover a photograph captioned 'The Bowl of Remembrance, perpetually filled with Rosemary since 1919, tended by a Remembrance Worker, the daughter of a fallen officer.' An illustration of the bowl also features on the League's letterhead.
