Volume 2 of the Astor Collection of drawings. 1943-4

Spencer married Patricia Preece four days after his divorce from Hilda. The marriage was unsuccessful and the couple separated almost immediately. The few Scrapbook drawings of Patricia show her in Cookham before their marriage. Tall, glamorous and sophisticated, she dances in Spencer's house 'Lindworth' to his gramophone, whilst he kneels on the floor, possibly to unpack some of his lavish gifts for her. They are approved by a Holy Ghost figure.
