About MeNewspaper cutting from The New York Times Book Review, dated 22 November, 1931, with article, "Mr Wells Vs. the Human Race" by George Soule on one side. The other has articles, "The Letters of Emily Dickinson" by Eda Lou Walton, and "Gossip and Reminiscence from Everyman's Editor" by Margaret Wallace.

The cutting is kept within a portfolio of articles and cuttings that belonged to James McBey, which he kept because they were of interest.

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 newspaper cutting.
