| Description | "Small, economy size. Jim was fired from Lilliput at the end of the year and maybe felt the need to economise. There is a handwritten message from Betty on the back so this card didn't get sent. The book to which she refers is Cat Meets Dog, an inconsequential book of photographs of cats and dogs which Jim and the (also fired) editor of Lilliput, Richard Bennett, put together in the leisure hours they had before departing. I'am fourteen and beginning to assert myself and Phoebe and Tich are still around." |
