Postcard from Dr Reser, Ankara, Turkey, to C.A. Storey on which he writes of the delay in receiving Storey's card and that he is unable to supply the book that Storey requests. He hopes to send his new translation soon, and asks for two Gibb Memorial Volumes at a reduced price.

Note from C.A. Storey to state that he had been to the University Press that morning and met with an official who produced a letter from Dow & Lester concerning the set of sheets of Tadhkirat al-mulūk and an imperfect set of these sheets. He has taken both the letter and facsimiles to Mr Raynes.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to thank him for the schedule of stock taken over by Dow & Lester in 1931 (possibly original of GMT/3/3/6). He writes concerning missing volumes and the parts that he has found. He agrees that they should ask Heffer regarding binding at contract rate and whether the numbers are sufficient to be considered contract. He also writes that he has asked Cox & Allen for proofs of Minorsky's work but is yet to receive them.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to return the signed cheque and to comment on the variation in charges and ways to improve how the volumes are handled. He further adds in reply to Luzac's letter that it would help if they could inform the Trust of the priority for the Volumes they require and thus help the Trust in supplying them.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes in which he informs, that after consideration, they should approach Heffer to carry out the work that Cox & Allen are unable to do, as Heffer may be able to get a special concession to obtain the binding materials. He further discusses the practicalities of getting the volumes to Heffer if they are willing to undertake the binding.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to inform Raynes that Heffer had taken a considerable number of the volumes required by Luzac. Cox & Allen do not seem to have returned the sheets which they folded some time ago. He informs that he has lent his own volumes to Heffer so they can see how the lettering should be. He suggests they try to get more 'odd parcels' from Dow & Lester.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to inform that he has no objection to the request from Princetown University Press for the reproduction of Sir Charles Lyall's translation of a poem. The other translation by Margoliouth is not from their publication and suggests it is Luzac to whom they should apply for permission. He also is in favour of sending Mr Ivanov the volumes he requests. He also writes that Heffer has informed him that some volumes are now stitched and wish to know whether they should be stored at the boathouse or in their own premises. Heffer has still failed to find some pages. Storey has supplied some further parcels which may contain some of the missing sheets.
