Stuk 56 - Letter from T. E. Page to Sir James Frazer

1 item

Woodcote, Godalming - Miss Buckley has sent the 'Fasti' with the corrections in slips, will send Frazer a revise in slips; praises the version, sends it to him with pencil notes [housed separately, as FRAZ/21/62]; hopes when he will not make further corrections because of the expense, tells him in private Mr Loeb finds his loss will exceed £200,000; is concerned about the notes, would like to keep the book to one volume, he can be authoritatively brief as 'your word stands of itself', and a single volume will reach so many more students.

Accompanied by two pages of notes by Frazer about the arrangements for the Loeb edition ("Critical notes: all or some or none?") and another with notes about Baldwin Spencer publications by Frazer; as well as the envelope. [Both items were previously housed as Frazer/14/65-69, but logically belong here.]

Pencil notes mentioned in the letter are at FRAZ/21/62: Proofreading notes on the "Fasti" by T. E. Page.
