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

Letter from T D Hobbs, Assistant Librarian, Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, to Raymond Head to state that the College does not possess any portraits or busts of Thomas Manning. He also believes there are none of Manning's books are in the Library, though because there is no provenance catalogue, it is possible they have some. However there are no diaries.

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.
