Memo – Ian Montgomery
UHF has received a further 29 boxes of Bob Hunter’s working papers.
We have already produced summary catalogues for quite a number of these boxes especially the photograph albums in Boxes B 174–580 | B174–585.
For some half dozen boxes there are two different typescripts of contents and these have been kept together to produce the final draft.
I have started looking at the remaining twenty three boxes starting with the lowest serial number.
