Scope and content
Would like to do something useful for war effort rather than doing adverts for perfume. Discusses his photos of Mrs Rheinlander, Daphne, Gabrielle Renard and her husband, and Jean Watts. Asks after Francis Rose and David Herbert. Met Bettisa yesterday. Mentions Leonor Fini. Is working in the studio of Munkacsi, with whom he gets on well. Thanks Beaton for complimenting him on his writing.
