A postcard, postdated May 15 1931, bearing a message in L.M. Montgomery's handwriting addressed to "Mr. G. B. MacMillan". George Boyd MacMillan (1881-1953) was a Scottish journalist and writer, and a favourite correspondent of L.M. Montgomery. The two were first introduced, by letter, in 1903, through an American writer who was developing a circle of literary pen friends. Although Montgomery and MacMillan only met briefly in-person, during her 1911 honeymoon in Scotland, their voluminous exchange of letters, postcards, and gifts continued until late 1941, just months before Montgomery's death. PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT: "Am sending two booklets of recent verse of Canadian authors and a book of Nova Scotia views. Best wishes. L.M.M.M."
