This is almost certainly the Lionel Selwyn who was active in the William Morris society almost from the start, and has an obituary on their site:
His practical contributions to the Society came in thc form of his
consistent and bracing advice on typography - it is to Lionel that we owe to a
large extent the quality of the programmes, letter-headings and publications of the
Society in recent years - and as a member, and later Chair, of the Programme
Committee, responsible for arranging all the Society's public events. Under
Lionel's leadership the programme was lively and varied, and meticulously
planned. But above all his contribution was on the human leveL He could always
be relied upon to be present, quietly in the background, and to undertake those
backroom activities that make public events possible.
