111x69mm (whole sheet 189x139mm). Single sheet. Pen and ink drawing with pencil caption. As published in the Daily Mail on January 29th, 1958, with the ‘D. M 29 JAN 1958’ ink stamp to the verso. Conventionally smart couple outside a post office, captioned in pencil: “We must send a greetings telegram to | Dominic and Tessa’s publicity agent.”. Tongue in cheek critique of Dominick Elwes’ elopement with Tessa Kennedy. Some light handling marks from production, but otherwise fine. On 28 January 1958 the marriage was announced, in Havana, Cuba, of Dominic Elwes, 26, and Tessa Kennedy, 19, the latter a ward in Chancery who had been forbidden to marry by a High Court judge in London. It caused a scandal. They married a second time, for luck, in New York on 31 March; and, when they returned to England on 16 July, Elwes was consigned to Brixton Prison. Apologies were tended to the courts by both parties for their manifest contempt; the younger being referred to in proceedings as "the infant" and, by the judge, as "this silly child". Dominic(k) Elwes, later a painter like his father, and an associate of the Clermont Set, committed suicide in 1975. His marriage had broken down in 1969; his wife Tessa became an interior designer and from 1971 to 1995 was married to the US film producer Elliott Kastner.
