Letter from Brooke Crutchley, University Printer, to C.A. Storey to inform of their experiments in setting up Arabic mechanically in Monotype cast for Kitāb al-Tashbīhāt and to provide an estimate of the costs for printing.

Letter from C.A. Storey to A.J. Arberry to enclose a copy of Heffer's last letter to Raynes on the subject of binding which explains that the difficulty is due to shortage of binders. He also replies that he is fully aware of the condition of the material as he has spent much time with it since its transfer to Cambridge in 1941 and there is no question of deterioration. He suggests that the British Council would probably not be able to help with the situation of binders. He gives a more detailed explanation of the situation of the stock and suggests, in future, they trustees ensure volumes are immediately folded and stitched after printing as they cannot afford to keep stocks of flat sheets. With this letter are some notes in Storey's hand containing information about stock.

Letter from C.A. Storey to Luzac & Co. to send them the Presentation List for the new volume of the Gibb Memorial Service. They should not let anyone see it other than the trustees. He suggests they now receive 150 copies rather than 100 in order to cover the ones needed to be sent to those on the Presentation list.
