Correspondence with Raymond Head mainly concerned with identification of artworks in the Society's Collections.

Letter from Geoff Salter, Hampshire County Library, to Raymond Head to enclose information regarding the pictures and articles that were in the house of George Staunton, Leigh Park House, Hampshire, in 1836. He asks whether any in the list match those in the Royal Asiatic Society's Collections. A photocopy of the list is with the letter. The list bears some handwritten annotations of items that are or were in the Society's Collections.

These Papers were all produced in the compiling of the A Catalogue of the Paintings and Drawings in the Royal Asiatic Society, London. which was published by the Royal Asiatic Society in 1991. The material includes a manuscript proof, correspondence connected to the artworks of the Society, correspondence and lists for compiling the index, and notes and articles which Head collected and collated during his research.
