Description | Sayings of Much-Recorded People by Eddie Tatham |
Details |
Spread from The Bystander 1932 showing some of the scions of 1930s society, and revealing some 'unrecorded sayings of much-recorded people'. Included is Gandhi saying 'Excuse my glove', the ubiquitous Miss Margaret Whigham asking,'What is a gossip-writer?', Lady Nancy Astor saying, 'Thank you - not much soda please' (she didn't drink), Cecil Beaton saying, 'Gee kid! You're tough', the Ruthven Twins saying,'I hate my sister's clothes', notorious nightclub owner Mrs Kate Meyrick pouring a cup of tea and saying, 'As I said to the vicar...', Mr Randolph Churchill, saying, 'Words fail me' and The Earl of Warwick asking a policeman the way to the Ritz. All sayings firmly tongue in cheek!
