[Henry Williamson] at Skirr Cottage, with the original mailing envelope in Lawrence's hand. 9 x 7 inches (23.3 x 18 cm). Nicely matted and framed with a portrait. Usual folds, else fine, with an authenticity letter from Julian Browning. In this letter, Lawrence asks if Williamson will be free the following Sunday at Skirr Cottage as "I am to be free all day (free days are like rubies to me now) ... Life is being pretty hectic here. Paper up to my eyes and jobs steadily accumulating. All R.A.F. work, of course."
