Mason was, according to E. V. Lucas, 'famous in both hemispheres'. His entry in the Oxford DNB ends with this assessment: 'His books were best-sellers for fifty years, and the films made from them, notably The Drum (1938), for which he wrote his own scenario, and The Four Feathers (1939), were among the most popular in their time.' 1p, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded twice for postage. The valediction is in Mason's autograph: 'Yours sincerely / A. E. W. Mason'. The rest of the note is typed: 'Dear Rosemary Barron, / I am very happy to send you my autograph, since you are kind enough to say that you would like to have it.'.
