About MeTypewritten correspondence (occasional handwriting) from Edward Verrall Lucas to Marguerite McBey. He is hoping to see her soon, and mentions his visit to Angouleme for a few days. It seems to have been posted to James "MacBey", but addresses "Beet", which appears to have been a long-standing nickname for Marguerite, based on previous letters (see ABDAG009504.7-13). Letter is dated 22 August 1935.

This object is part of an archive that belonged to Marguerite McBey. As a result of her generosity, Aberdeen Art Gallery holds the largest archive of James McBey's work, including prints, drawings, sketchbooks, oil paintings and memorabilia such as this letter.
