No Binding. Condición: Good. Original Menu card signed by; P. G. Wodehouse, Arthur Morrison, Ian Hay, Rafael Sabatini and many others. The menu is for a Freemason's meal held at The Connaught Rooms, Gt. Queen St. Kingsway, London on November 22nd 1929. This must have been during Wodehouse's brief dabble with Freemasonry. Signed by 16 of the diners, I only recognise the four obvious authors, but it is likely to include other famous people. The menu is made of card and is quite small, measuring approximately 11.5 x 18.5 cms (4.5 x 7.25 inches). It has a sellotape strip to the reverse at the top, a closed tear to the top, creases and also scuffed patches (insect damage?). Signed by Author(s).
