Dürer sketch with autograph annotations by G.B.S., 1929.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/214949173

Plate of Durer's "Sketch of the Monument of a Knight and Lady," mounted on cardboard. Written above the plate, in Bernard Shaw's handwriting, is "Not this." An explanation is that this may have been a suggestion for an illustration to Saint Joan, as the Durer plate might well be used for that purpose. Also included is a letter regarding the plate, addressed to James [D.] Hart, from Shaw's secretary, Blanche Patch, 25 July 1929.
