Description Folded where enveloped. Autograph letters in black ink, signed, on headed note-paper of 6 Lyndhurst Avenue Hastings but actually sent from Malvern. Harrison writes "Dear Sir", regarding the BBC Bristol "will be hiring material of my "Autumn Landscape" [published by Hawkes & Son in 1938] from you withing the next few days". He writes that they should send all available manuscript parts to make up the others "the litho'ed part being very indistinct". The second letter refers to the forthcoming BBC performance on 3 January, conveys his annoyance that the publisher has destroyed the manuscript parts.
