MOUNTBATTEN OF BURMA: AN AUTOGRAPHED LETTER ON HEADED PAPER, from the Governor of the Isle of Wight: "Dear Osborne Smith, As I confirmed to you at the dinner at Hayle Manor whilst passing through Brading, I could not resist dropping in to see your waxworks show.

I particularly like the model of Sophie Dawes and Queen Victoria with her tapping foot. As for the figure of myself, I do think that the bronze coloured bust at Broadlands is better. All my friends like it very much indeed.

Yours sincerely, Mountbatten of Burma"
