LLOYD GEORGE, David (1863-1945, Prime Minister of Great Britain, 1916-22)

The lower portion of a typed letter signed by Lloyd George to the Rt. Hon. John Henry Whitley MP

Approximately 119 × 185 mm, creased where folded for posting; traces of prior mounting on the verso, with a few surface blemishes to the recto (well clear of the signature); in decent condition.

While the bulk of the letter is missing, the last lines refer to the burden of protective tariffs on the textile trade. Lloyd George was Prime Minister from December 1916 until October 1922; John Henry Whitley (1866-1935) was Speaker of the House of Commons 1921-28 and Chairman of the BBC 1930-35. Undated, but almost certainly 1921-22.

Provenance: Collection of The Hon Barry Jones AC.
