Papers acquired from Livio Dobrez in May 1977 are contained in Files 2, 8 and 9, as noted in the file listings. The material contained in File 10 was acquired from Thomas Shapcott in January 1980. Paula Keogh donated the correspondence contained in File 11 in March 2006. Further papers were donated by Elspeth Dransfield in 2018.
