Immediate source of acquisition:

Les Blake donated his papers to the Library in 1984-86 under the Taxation Incentives for the Arts Scheme. Following his death, the remaining papers were purchased from his son, Micheal Blake, in 1988. In 1992 Michael Blake added some papers relating to the film director Raymond Longford. The first consignment (36 boxes) was received from Blake in April 1984. The second consignment (34 boxes) arrived in September the same year. A third consignment was received in 1986. This was found to contain mainly printed materials, which were accessioned into the general National Library collection, and the small manuscript component was integrated with the last major consignment of Blake’s papers, acquired from Blake’s son Michael in October 1988, a year after Blake’s death. This part of the collection fills 45 boxes.
