Note from C.A. Storey to state that he had been to the University Press that morning and met with an official who produced a letter from Dow & Lester concerning the set of sheets of Tadhkirat al-mulūk and an imperfect set of these sheets. He has taken both the letter and facsimiles to Mr Raynes.

Draft letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes in which he enquires regarding the "odd parcels" still at Dow & Lester. He also asks Raynes to check Fleming's bill to ascertain the number of facsimiles that he supplied. He also writes concerning the possible purchase of the books in Ellis' library and the inadvisability of paying a large sum if many of them can already be found in other libraries (see GMT/1/3/7-GMT/1/3/9).

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.
