sub-series 2 - Preparation of papers published

100 files

This material comprises preliminary working material, original work, and data. Contents include: reprints, prints of electron micrographs (mainly used as plates for illustrations), annotated manuscript and typescript drafts, write-ups of experimental results, tables, figures, and proofs.

Also included is correspondence with: editors, reviewers, and referees, including George Palade, Werner Henle, Denis Burkitt; conference organizers about the submissions, content, and drafts of papers, arrangements, programmes, and other related matters; copies of published proceedings.

There are also requests by others for the loan of electron micrographs for use in their papers. Some content is on a more personal level in letters. Prints in envelopes labelled 'spares' and 'spare figs' are usually spares of those used in the final publication. Conference papers were mostly published. These documents show the process of preparation of scientific papers, from draft to publication.

The original order by papers, chronologically, was retained. In most cases, original file descriptions were transcribed exactly.
