Ms Booth allowed the Library to make copies from microfiches held at the Tate Gallery of papers of Augustus John, originally part of his personal archive (TAM 21G/43-44/67). They comprise apparently unpublished notes of songs in Romani collected by the artist, c 1910, together with related vocabularies in his hand and further notes by the diplomat and scholar Bernard Gilliat-Smith, incomplete proofs of an article by Eric Otto Winstedt published in the Journal of the Gypsy Lore Society 3 (1910), 242-53, and a fragment of a typescript article, [?1940s], by Augustus John on the persecution of Gypsies.
John, Augustus, 1878-1961
