Ornate engraved letterhead featuring picture of the firm's headquarters, Veno Buildings, Chester Road, Manchester. Good, but with creasing, fraying and some closed tears. Rust marks from staple in top left-hand corner. He was sorry not to have seen him 'at the annual meeting of the Column Club on Friday night', and hopes he has recovered from his indisposition. 'I am taking this opportunity of thanking you for the many kindnesses you have shown me while I was Chairman of the Column Club. Our mutual friend, Mr Fryers was unanimously elected with great acclamation, and we must see that he receives all the support and assistance we can render him, for, with the war over, I think the time has now arrived when the Column Club can do something.' Signed 'W. H. Veno'.
