It may be too soon to return to TSE business as usual but I'm going to
try. For years, literally, I've been trying to track down a particular
photograph of TSE. It appears as the frontispiece in T.S. ELIOT; A STUDY OF
HIS WRITING BY SEVERAL HANDS, edited by B.Rajan and published originally in
1947 by Dennis Dobson, Ltd. in London. The photo is a profile of TSE. He is
looking slightly downward to the right. There is an illegible (to me)
signature in the lower right hand corner, clearly done with the sort of pen
or brush used in calligraphy. I tried to reach the publisher years ago but
got nowhere. Can anyone help? Great photo of the man, best I know of.
