Description:
no city, England: Rupert Hart-Davis, unpublished ephemera, 1920. Ephemera. Light cardstock folded once to make a 3.5x5 inch rectangular card featuring the graphic in a printed intaglio frame. Opens up to other signs of professional production and the presenters' names in nibbed inkpen. A bit worn and dusty, good exemplar. . . We were about to toss to scavengers when we grokked the signature, which could have as easily been Rupert's.
