Inscribed in blue-black ink to verso of ffep: "Claude Schuster, from Cuthbert Headlam," foxed, heaviest at front. Else, clean. Good+ Unusual inscribed. A pleasing political association copy of the 1914 limited edition of Cuthbert Headlam's edited collection of letters by Lady Harriot Pitt Eliot, the beloved elder sister of British PM William Pitt, inscribed by the editor to "Claude Schuster," surely (despite the misspelling of his first name) Headlam's near contemporary, the British civil servant and "one of the most influential Permanent Secretaries of the 20th century," Claud Schuster. Claud Schuster, 1st Baron Schuster, GCB, CVO, QC (18691956) was a British barrister and civil servant, whose long tenure as Permanent Secretary to the Lord Chancellor's Office, made him "one of the most influential Permanent Secretaries of the 20th century" (ONDB). Like his inscribee, Sir Cuthbert Morley Headlam, 1st Baronet (18761964) trained as a barrister, later becoming Conservative MP for three constituencies in the north-east, including Barnard Castle. He was also a diarist. The "remarkable" and classically educated (but "no pedant or blue-stocking"!) Lady Harriot Pitt Eliot (1758-1786) is buried in the Pitt Family vault in Winchester Cathedral.
