Wrappers rubbed; occasional fox spot. Good condition. "During the war years art materials were scarce, so Herbert McWilliams used whatever was available: iodine, ordinary blue writing ink, chalk, carbon pencils, scraps of paper, a simple fountain pen and even lemon juice and rum. His drawing has the facility of the trained architect, good perspective and accuracy, but he combined this with vitality, life and a sense of urgency; it was necessary for him to record before the memory faded before his eyes." .
