With Pinter's compliments slip stapled to the inside of the upper wrapper, inscribed to literary agent Gillon Aitken: "Sep. 21 / Dear Gillon / Here's Arthur / Wellard / Yours / Harold". Cricket enthusiast Harold Pinter was Chairman of the Gaieties C.C. and published this tribute to Wellard, who had played and umpired for Gaieties towards the end of his life.
