Postcard sent by George Bernard Shaw, £650 at Mullock’s.
A handful of lots featuring communications between an actress, Miss Alice Bowes (1889-1969), and George Bernard Shaw featured in a February 23 sale held by Mullock’s (20% buyer’s premium).
Signed GBS and dated April 1927 by Shaw, the message on the back of the photocard reproduced here, which sold at £650 to an online bidder in Church Stretton, Shropshire, would appear to hint at a rather wicked sense of humour.
