These notes, which include an annotated script of the film, appear to have been given to Kyffin Williams, together with a holograph poem by John Ormond, 'Instruction to settlers', 1967, prior to his trip. In addition, the file includes a copy of the journal Argentina, vol. 4, no. 4 (April 1963), which contains an article entitled 'The desert and the dream'; a list of contacts in Patagonia, [1968], prepared by Valmai Jones in readiness for Kyffin Williams's visit; typescript questions and answers prepared before, or possibly at the beginning of, his visit; and a catalogue of the 'Photographs of Patagonia' exhibition at Oriel Môn, 1982, with photocopies of drawings contained in an album. The file also contains a photocopy of the book Tan tro nesaf by Gareth Alban Davies (Llandysul, 1976), which includes the titles of pictures by Kyffin Williams to be inserted in the work.
