TCG Letter #1261

Williams College, Chapin Library.

Pauline noted various Tolkien related matters in her diary: 7 September, 1971: I worked hard after cleaning and then walking dogs – and nearly finished the Hobbit map. - 8 September, 1971: Fritz home to lunch – after which I finished the Tolkien poster. - 9 September, 1971: We went off to Poole – picnic lunch in the New Forest – 2.30 dropped it on the Tolkiens (with chrysanthemums – lettuce etc) and he seemed pleased with the map and okayed it – she told us about the [possibly should be Ld – Christina Scull] Snowdon’s visit to photograph him. - 10 September, 1971: Walking dogs – then Joy phoned and came down to collect the Tolkien map.
