Letter from R.A. Nicholson to C.A. Storey to ask him to forward the enclosed order form to Luzac after signing it. Nicholson is pleased the stock has been delivered but presumes it is all mixed up and will need arranging before further stock comes from Luzac's. He asks for Storey's suggestions on dealing with this. Nicholson had tried to arrange to return to Cambridge but had been unable to engage rooms so will probably stay in Wales for the summer. He also asks Storey's opinion on Arberry becoming a full trustee as others are no longer in this country (See also GMT/1/3/2).

Partial letter from R.A. Nicholson to C.A. Storey which enquires regarding Storey's health and whether workmen from the University Press could help with sorting the stock.

Letter from Vladimir Minorsky to C.A. Storey in which he writes that Professor Nicholson had informed him that Storey was likely to be the trustee-in-charge of his work on Safavid Administration. He asks whether Storey would be willing to look at his translation before he sends in the manuscript. This is to be printed before the rest but if Storey hasn't time they can speak of the matter once the galley proofs are ready. He also asks if Storey knows how he can find the description of Shah Ismail's Diwan marked Vat(ican) turc.221.

Letter from Vladimir Minorsky to C.A. Storey to thank Storey for his letter and to send his translations. He asks for Storey to write corrections on the copy and that he would be happy to discuss any complicated corrections. He gives some details of his working method for the translations.

Letter from W.L. Raynes, Clerk to the Trust, to C.A. Storey to inform him that the final portion of the stock at Dow & Lester had been delivered to the Press. He has written to Mr Lewis to enquire regarding re-sorting and indexing the stock and will inform Storey once he has had a reply.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to state that he met Raynes' clerk when leaving the office that morning who had given him the numbers of the volumes requested by Luzac. Storey expects to be able to find these. He asks Raynes to obtain the plates for the lettering of the bindings from Dow & Lester. Once they come, he thinks the binding will be able to proceed.

Letter from W.L. Raynes, Clerk to the Trust, to C.A. Storey to inform him that a representative of the University Press had seen Raynes' assistant and informed him that the stock is estimated at some 20 tons of flat sheets and parcels of folded sheets. Some of the packages are labelled, but others are not. They were received from Dow & Lester without order and many are in need of urgent repackaging. This cannot be provided by the Press. It was estimated that it would take 2 labourers and Storey 2-3 months to classify, re-arrange and pack the whole stock.

Letter from Vladimir Minorsky to C.A. Storey to apologise for suggesting that Storey reads his manuscript and that he understands how busy Storey must have been since term started. He suggests they wait for the galley proofs but will be glad of any suggestions.

Copy of a letter from Dow & Lester Ltd. to W. Lewis, University Press, concerning some books which had been sent to them from Percy Lund Humphries & Co, labelled "Persian poems". They will send a few sheets of the books to ascertain if these are the books about which the University Press is enquiring.

Letter from W.L. Raynes, Clerk to the Trust, to C.A. Storey to inform him, that has yet, no trace has been found of the brasses needed for the bindings.
