Four notebooks, numbered 1, 2, 4, 5, accompanied by loose pages relating to or detached from the notebooks and an envelope labelled ‘Analytical tables compiled by T. K. Penniman’ (found in notebook 1). The notebooks are done in duplicate with an original page followed by a carbon copy, and are identified by labels on the front cover: '1. Index. B1-272'. '2. Index. B272-409; E1-153, see 4'. '4. Index . E153-350'. '5. Index. E350-403, G1-[G61]'. Each index contains a note indicating that 'entries treating the dead' are marked in a distinctive colour. The 14 loose pages relate to notebooks 1, 2, and 4.
These indexes are probably created from three of Frazer's research notebooks which were given to the British Library in 1939, referred to as 'Unclassified' note-books: anthropological extracts and notes, mainly from printed sources'.
