Review and Presentation List of Vol XVI of the "E.J.W. Gibb Memorial Series", Entitled Tadhkirat al-Mulūk', List of organisations to which copies should be sent. Storey has added the note: "Please circulate in the order R.A. Nicholson, H.A. R. Gibb, A.J. Arberry and return to C.A. Storey".
Sans titreLetter from R.A. Nicholson to C.A. Storey to thank for the presentation list and the communication regarding Minorsky. He writes he is definitely opposed to the publication of the translation and commentary apart from the text. He also is not pleased about supplying Minorsky with offprints but sees there are special circumstances. He writes of his wife's illness and how that has consigned them to their room and caused a delay in replying to correspondence. She is improving but thinks it will be some time before she returns to normal health. He, too, has a bad leg but otherwise is feeling fit.
Sans titreLetter from C.A. Storey to Vladimir Minorsky to inform Minorsky of Professor Nicholson's view of Minorsky's proposal in that he may have 50 offprints to distribute to those who could otherwise not obtain it, but they will not print 100 to 200 copies of the stand-alone translation and commentary.
Sans titreLetter from W. Heffer & Sons Ltd. to C.A. Storey to state they have received the sheets of Persian script for "Tadhkirat al-Mulūk". They have mislaid Storey's instructions regarding the lettering on the book and asks for them to be resent. They include a rough rubbing of the lettering from a pattern volume provided by Minorsky which gives the position. They also wish to know whether the publication date should read 1942 or 1943. The rubbing is with the letter.
Sans titreLetter from W.L. Raynes, Clerk to the Trust, to C.A. Storey to in which he explains he has received a letter from Luzac who are awaiting copies of different volumes of Dr. Nicholson's Mathnawi. They are suggesting they will go down to the binders to sort the volumes and then submit a folded version to Storey to check. Raynes asks Storey's opinion on the matter.
Sans titreLetter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to inform Raynes that there is no need for Luzac to sort the volumes. The problem is that Cox & Allen are not getting on with the binding. As he is tired of trying to negotiate with them Storey asks Raynes to send an official enquiry as to when Cox & Allen will complete the job.
Sans titreLetter from C.A. Storey to Mr Newman, W. Heffer & Sons Ltd. to enclose the spine lettering. He also requests the publication date is changed to 1943 and regrets that they had not sent him a proof to check details.
