Three letters written by Herbert McLean to Bern Dibner. In one letter, dated 1954, November 24, Evans proposes that Dibner print a catalogue of 289 works that Evans and his colleagues at the University of California-Berkeley Institute of Experimental Biology have deemed "the chief works or classics in the history of science." In a letter dated 1955, June 18, Evans mentions a shipment of Burndy Library duplicates. An undated letter is a social invitation to Dibner. Also included is a photograph of Bern Dibner and Herbert Evans, taken at Evans's home and dated November, 1952; the photograph includes a handwritten caption by Evans on verso dated 1952, November 16.
