Ragdoll Research: day 2 with Wain Pearce

by Jane

Anther day with Wain and the Ragdoll archives.  This time I tried for a less scatter-shot approach, instead taking photos of every document in two files (Petil-Lu and NCFA) and the most interesting in a third (The Daytons).  Meanwhile Wain went through other files and alerted me to anything that seemed to fit with my particular areas of interest - which then also got photographed.

There isn't a document in the whole archive that I wouldn't like to be taking a copy of but the time constraint makes that impossible so I just have to console myself with the knowledge that every document I do copy is a bonus.

Here are two favourites of mine from the Petil-Lu file:


Lulu Rowley letter to Blanche Herman


Lulu Rowley Christmas card to Blanche

In other than Ragdoll research news - there's a cold front coming down from the north here and it's expected to get to within a few degrees of freezing here overnight - or worse.  Gary is not a very happy chap!
