Imago Mundi MS 1
Title:

Letters, arranged by correspondent, mostly with authors and prospective authors of articles for Imago Mundi, and with 'Corresponding Editors', i.e. local collaborators. They relate to editorial requests and suggestions, learned discussions, amendments etc. They generally exclude proofs, though occasionally include original photographs. One or two correspondents have supplied offprints of their own local publications. Sometimes there is also correspondence with third parties (e.g. libraries, photographers, other scholars). The names of these third parties are omitted in the catalogue below.

These bundles comprise Bagrow's more frequent correspondents. Those for whom there are fewer than c20 letters have for the most part been placed in MS 2. Other letters have been grouped by subject. See MSS 3-5.

This arrangement is not original, but appears to correspond broadly with how Bagrow filed letters at the time. Correspondence with his most frequent contacts was kept in bundles by correspondent; the rest was mostly placed in files in alphabetical order of correspondent, with the letters from any given individual flagged by strips of white paper.
