Ffeil AAB1/1/1 - Letters to Theodore Francis Powys (photocopies)

Photocopies of one hundred and five letters, [1883, 1902, 1906-1907, 1909, 1912, 1914-1919, 1921-1933], 1935-1936, 1938, 1941-1949, 1951, from John Cowper Powys to his brother Theodore Francis Powys, the earliest of which was written by John Cowper Powys from Sherborne School, together with a typescript copy of one letter, 1947, possibly made by Phyllis Playter (f. 317), and one letter, 1956, from John Cowper Powys to Violet Powys, widow of Theodore (ff. 340-342). A substantial portion of the letters are undated, with likely dates (and other notes) added in pencil by Morine Krissdottir. The letters contain mostly personal, professional and family news and some are illustrated with John Cowper Powys's drawings. Enclosures comprise a photocopy of a printed article containing a review of Theodore Powys's The House with the Echo (1928) and photocopies of letters to John Cowper Powys from Barnet B. Ruder and Reginald Moore. The originals of these letters are housed in Texas. The photocopies were made by Jeffrey Kwintner and given to Morine Krissdottir.
