Charles Archibald Vlieland once again

In the Singapore newspaper there is a lot of information about Charles Archibald Vlieland.
That is where we found this rare illustration.

Charles Archibald Vlieland..
Years ago ,we found on internet a clipping in a book The asbestos mask with a photograph of Jerome Nicholas as is says under this picture and a signature of his alter ego Archie Wheeland.
All combined in one person Charles Archibald Vlieland.

And as we all can see it really is the same person.


There was also a note inside that tells us even more.

"Dear Miss Davies
Thank you very much for your efforts over the Birmingham Mail. I am very glad to have the extra copies - one I shall now be able to send to my beloved mother in law, who is the Anne of the dedication (To Another Anne whose spirits as unquenchable as my love for her) and will be thrilled to bits!
I return your copy of the book endorsed on the title page.
Yours sincerely
Archie Wheeland"
Also we know now that his beloved mother in law is the Ann of the dedication in this book.
