Manuscripts
The collection contains correspondence and ephemera from and about Sir Sydney Cockerell. The recipient of these letters is Muriel J.

The letters from May 1962-1965 are from Dorothy Hawksley to Muriel J. Hughes after Cockerell's death. In a few of his letters Sir Sydney Cockerell mentions his son, Christopher, who invented the Hovercraft. Sydney Cockerell also occasionally mentions British celebrities, such as Bernard Shaw.
