A nice piece of Oxford Union ephemera, with the three signatures - 'James Robertson-Justice.', 'Compton Mackenzie' and 'Michael Maclagan' - printed in a row on the otherwise blank reverse of the 25.5 x 20.5 cm leaf, which is aged and worn, with closed tears to extremities and a fold line. Printed beneath the text of the advertisement on the other side of the paper is an attractive illustration in imitation of infant drawing, printed in brown, red, green black and white on a pink ground. The entire text reads: 'OXFORD UNION SOCIETY | Thursday, May 26th, 1955, at 8.15 p.m. | EIGHTS WEEK DEBATE | Visit of | Mr. MICHAEL MACLAGAN | Mr. JAMES ROBERTSON JUSTICE | and | Sir COMPTON MACKENZIE | Question for Debate: | "This House Would Never Be Young Twice." | Proposed by Mr. ALEC GRANT, Merton | Opposed by Mr. PETER CHILVER, St. Edmund Hall | Mr. MICHAEL BROWN, Wadham, will speak third | Mr. MICHAEL MACLAGAN, Christ Church and Trinity, will speak fourth | Mr. JAMES ROBERTSON JUSTICE, J.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. The three items are in good condition, each with his firm signature 'Compton Mackenzie'. Each is 1p, 4to, in good condition, folded for postage.Despite being scored through, one can see that the first and last salutation are addressed to 'Mrs Raymont', and the second to 'Mr Raymond'. ONE: 23 November 1961. He is pleased that she enjoyed his book 'Mezzotint': 'The setting is really the Seychelles but of course I had to lay it in the South Atlantic instead of the Indian Ocean.' He agrees with her 'about these efforts at modernity by some of my contemporaries. It always reminds me of the efforts of old people to remain young with the help of hair-dyeing etc.' TWO: 6 February 1964. Scarcely more than a note. He remembers 'the Froebel Institute but it was in Margravine Gardens beyond Talgarth Road, I expect the young Irving used to go down to Maraeon from Halsetown'. THREE: 6 September 1965. As a result of her letter he has 'corrected "Heva" and "Bisgon" for a possible second edition'. He reports that he 'had an interesting letter from A. L. Rowse the other day and I was gratified that he passed my Cornwall of nearly sixty years ago as correct'. He would 'very much like to see Gunwalloe again in one way but I should hate to see the motor-cars etc, all over the place. I almost always make it a rule never to revisit the glimposes of the moon'.…

Mackenzie's letter is 1p., landscape 12mo. 16 lines. Good, on lightly-aged paper, with a crease to one corner. He thanks MP for his 'encouraging letter' and discusses his own 'silly slip about the Faery Queen's entrance' in a radio broadcast: 'I was so much concerned with giving listeners the difference between the O.P. and the Prompt side that it became a question of physician heal thyself.' He continues: 'I wasn't sure of the year Mille Le Garde [sic] sang that song. Probably '97. Rose Dering was the Aladdin. She was second boy. Ted Young was the Widow Twankey. By the way in the pantomime in which Marie Lloyd was principal girl and sang Ta Ra Ra Boom de Ay, Vesta Tilley was the principal Boy, but I cannot remember the name of the pantomime.' He would like to get hold of copies of 'The Stage' for the 1880s and 1890s, and hopes that they 'may meet sometime. it would give me great pleasure.' An autograph postscript reads: 'I always enjoy your books very much'. Carbon copy of MP's reply: 1p., 8vo. Creased and aged. 18 lines. He gives chapter and verse (names, dates, venues) concerning the points raised by CM, concluding 'I hope we meet before long'.…
