Autograph letter signed to Beaton. Read an article with great interest, and was inspired to re-read "The Glass of Fashion". There was a small piece about her and her balloons, which prompted her to wonder if anyone ever says "whatever happened to Gladys Peto?" She went on drawing balloons until 1946 when she took up gardening and landscape painting. She had a stroke in 1970 and her right hand is still paralysed. Admires his photographs and the illustrations in the book.
