Letter from Vladimir Minorsky to C.A. Storey to inform that Heffer are going to print 500 copies of his book but he remembers there were more than 1000 copies of the translation. He wonders whether the Trust would consider publishing cheap copies of the translation without the Persian text? If this is not possible he asks that he could have 100 copies of offprints.

Letter from W.L. Raynes, Clerk to the Trust, to C.A. Storey to inform Storey that 500 copies of Tadhkirat al-mulūk were produced by Fleming by photo litho halftone.

Letter from C.A. Storey to Vladimir Minorsky to inform Minorsky that he thinks it is inadvisable to bring out extra copies without the Persian text and that supplying him with offprints to give out would further dilute the market. 500 copies are likely to supply the demand for many years. He thanks Minorsky for providing a reference for him.

Letter from Vladimir Minorsky to C.A. Storey to further explain regarding his request for offprints which he would supply to his friends in Russia and out-of-the-way places like Turkestan, Baku and Tiflis. He would also give them to economists and general historians unlikely to become the Trust's customers. He is willing to supply the list of those he wishes to send the offprints to, in order to allay Storey's concerns about potential loss of sales.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to clarify what he meant by his request for the "presentation list" for the forthcoming volume.

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".

Letter from C.A. Storey to Professor Nicholson, Professor Gibb and Dr Arberry concerning Minorsky's proposal to either have copies of his translation published without the text or be allowed to obtain offprints at his own expense. Two copies of this letter, one of which also contains the reply from R.A. Nicholson. He writes that he is not in favour of copies of the translation being published without the manuscript but is happy for Minorsky to have, at his own expense, 50 offprints to distribute to those who would find it difficult or impossible to purchase copies.

Letter 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.

Letter 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.

Letter 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.
