In den Warenkorb4pp., 4to. Bifolium on card. In good condition, lightly-aged. A bold and characteristic cartoon by Low, depicting the evening's chairman. The central two pages, under the heading 'LADIES' NIGHT', give a humorous description of the planned celebrations, beginning: 'The June Meeting of the Sette is nominally dedicated to the graces of feminine society. Actually, it is an overt act of self glorification on the part of the individual members of the Sette.' Among those referred to are: 'the Master of Ceremonies, Bro. S. K. Glanville (Ushabti)', 'Bro. Vyvyan Holland (Idler)', 'Bro J. G. Lockhart (Investigator)', 'Bro. Norman Birkett, K.C. (Listener) and Bro. The Hon. Francis Pakenham (Cartwright)', and 'the Vice-President, Bro. N. V. C. Turner (Philanderer)'. The back page carries the menu, including 'Crème Rossolnick', 'Suprême de Chapon Savoy' and 'Coeur de Laitue'.
