Scope and content

Embedded text reads: Dear Anthony, We are all well at home except that the old cow died in the explosion which broke Grandpa's leg and burned the house down, but that was put out by the flood which carried away the front garden. Meantime the central heating has packed up, the second glacial period is coming and we have the brokers-men in. Hoping this finds you as it leaves us at present. Your loving playmates.

Depicts Anthony Eden lying on the beach in sunshine while Harold Macmillan and Winston Churchill sit wrapped up in blankets by the ruins of a house.
