by Meynell, Sir Francis
A lovely keepsake in honor of his mother Alice made by Francis Meynell was presented to the members of the AIGA after he had been unable to come in person for a speech (there are conflicting versions of this--see My Lives pp. 178-179 and Dreyfus 65a.) The booklet has an introduction by Meynell, several poems and small text pieces by Alice Meynell, as well as several short poems about her.
