Manuscripts and typescripts of poems (unpublished but dated), 1883 - 1959

Component identifier:

Series II

Content Summary:

This series comprises 61 folders.

Immediate source of acquisition:

The papers held at MS 727 were received by the Library in several instalments between 1958 and 1991.

Arrangement:

This material has been arranged in order to allow:-

(1) a broad survey of Gilmore's verse. This is possible since the arrangement is basically chronological. However in some cases Gilmore has conjoined variously dated pieces with similar titles. Also variously dated poems often appear on the one sheet.

(2) location of a specific item. This is possible since the arrangement of poems under each year is alphabetical by the first letter of the first line.

Names:

Ralfs, Christopher, Mr.
