Title: Mr. Chesterton comes to tea ; or, How the King of England captured Redskin Island
Description: In  the early 1970's I and a friend bought 16 original pencil drawings by G.K.C., done to illustrate a number of little stories made up by the two little daughters of novelist & critic Archibald Marshall.    Because there had been no single story I set out all the characters (an American doctor, a French Chevalier, a redskin chieftan, a London bobby, King Edward VII in regalia and again in mufti, a small boy dressed as a sailor, etc.,) and wrote a story round that disparate collection.
It was printed by Sebastian Carter at the Rampant Lions Press, Cambridge  and Richard Ingrams contributed, without fee, an introduction on G.K.C. as artist.  The  edition was of only 350 copies, each numbered, and signed by Richard Ingrams and myself.  Her Majesty the Queen accepted copy No. 1,  and I went to Bckingham Palace with my youngest daughter, Bernadette, to present it.
A number of people, including reviewers, have said that a cheap edition should be issued,  and it would greatly please me if that could be done.
