拍品專文

Henry Canova Vollam Morton (1892-1979) was a pioneering travel writer and journalist, known for his popular books on London, Great Britain and the Holy Land. He first achieved fame in 1923 when, while working for the Daily Express, he reported on the opening of the Tomb of Tutankhamun by Howard Carter in Egypt, out-manoeuvering the official Times journalist who had been given exclusive rights to the story.
