Series 14

Content Summary:

This small series contains correspondence with Sir Brudenell White, P.G. White and others shortly after Brookes was appointed a director of N.M.L.A. in 1928. However, most of the letters concern dealings between N.M.L.A. and a client S.S. Appleby from 1947 until 1952. Brookes remained on the board until his eightysecond year.

Immediate source of acquisition:

The papers of Herbert Brookes were presented to the National Library in April 1967 by his widow Ivy Deakin Brookes. In October 1967 she deposited her own extensive collection, and together they form the Brookes Papers.

Names:

Brookes, Ivy
