Since then, I have devised a new method of preparing this listing for Russell As new items arrive, typed catalogue cards are still prepared and interfiled with our existing cards for researchers who can visit the Archives. At the same time, however, entries are put into the computer of the correspondence which will be reported in Russell, i.e., letters either to or from Russell. The listing can be printed out, proofread, and be ready for perusal and insertion in Russell at any time.. The Correspondence and the Manuscript listings are to become a regular feature of Russell With the help of the new methodology, readers will thus be kept informed of the arrival of most acquisitions within a reasonable amount of time. We do not report acquisitions of letters about Russell (of which there are many), photographs, drawings and canoons, audio and video cassettes, minutes of meetings, memorials or petitions on BR's behalf, and newsdippings. Readers interested in such holdings may contact the Russell Archives individually. There are 44 entries in this listing, covering approximately 167 letters and telegrams. Some of the items have been received from a total of ten other instirutions, to whom we are very grateful. The latest acquisition reponed is number 1,133, which arrived on 8 August 1991. The following abbreviations should be noted: L(s). or l(s). = letter (s); P(s). or p(s). = photocopy(ies); p.c(s). = post card(s). I Russel~ n.s. IO (1990); 30-67. The present listing is the last one to report not-sorecent acquisitions which had been overlooked. 1......- (6., (r>JI ~ ()~. ~-Jl.r~ ~-.~ f.o -t.--...f..tJ~ (i.~ S'o ~ " • •."-..A ~ ~ ~~ fP"'-....
