Dossier 51 - Misc. later items of biographical interest.

Includes correspondence re portrait of Taylor by Ruskin Spear, to commemorate his 80th birthday, 1965-66, a telegram of greeting from conference at Kyoto, 1966, group letter of greeting for birthday, 1973. Also a draft letter from Taylor to Bertha Jeffreys, which begins: `Thank you so much for coming in and relieving my boredom for an hour today', and continuing with a scientific speculation on hydraulic resistance. The letter tails off, and was never sent. It is undated, but may be one of the last he wrote and is characteristic of Taylor's unquenchable scientific curiosity and his fight against increasing physical disability.
