Typescript letters

The file comprises three incomplete typescript letters from David Jones, a single page of the typescript text of an article by him entitled 'Ray Howard-Jones : An Introduction' (The Anglo-Welsh Review, vol. 17, no. 39 (Summer 1968) pp. 53-4) and a fragment of typescript. One of these letters, all of which appear to have been intended for publication, concerns the Mabinogion (1950), another is a St David's day message (1960) and the third appears to have arisen from a review of The Great North Road (London, 1961) by Frank Morley (1961).

There is also a letter from Sonia Brownell who typed for him in 1963, a manuscript page and a photostat.
