Margot Hamilton Hill (XX-XXI) Set & Costume designer, book illustrator and lecturer on the history of fashion. Margot met Alfred Daniels (1924-2015) at a dance at the RCA and later married him. I have acquired a number of set and costume paintings by Margot dating from around the 1950’s. I also have a number of preliminary studies by Alfred. The last three images show a  part of the whole collection and an article written by Alfred Daniels in the publication ‘Creative Arts’, which features illustration by Margot (not included in this sale) This listing is for a single paper by Margot, as detailed below.
