Transcript

Joy Hill writes to Pamela Chandler. She is delighted by the photos taken of Tolkien and could not take them all in given the amount. She mentions that they are assembling the translated editions and colour images would be very suitable for them. When Mr. Rayner returns from a trip they would perhaps like a colour photograph of him. Mentioning that he was the first Hobbit reader.

The reprint of George Allen & Unwin - A Remembrancer cover photograph could be the photo requested, but in private correspondence no evidence is available to confirm this, though it does seem highly likely.
