Manuscripts
Notebook #104
- Description
Does not appear to contain a 'contents list', nor any material on Greek myths under letters 'G' or 'M'. The REVERSE of the book lists (in Arundell Esdaile's hand?) a series of Greek coins (?), photographs, including some pasted into the book and others torn out. Katharine Esdaile used the book as another alphabetical sculptors directory notebook, probably at an intermediate stage, since the notes are more detailed in some cases. It would appear that Esdaile kept a series of these notebooks with jottings at different times. They do not seem to be cross-related and presumably she must have consulted each of them when pulling together material for articles and books.

- Provenance
- Purchased by the Huntington Library in 1962. The collection was initially accessioned into the Huntington Art Reference Library in 1962. Sometime afterwards, the printed books and pamphlets were removed, separately catalogued, and shelved with the main body of the Art Reference Books, and the photographs were removed to the Photo Study Collection. In 2005, the Art Reference Library collection was merged into the main collection of the Huntington Library and the decision was made to re-integrate the printed material and photographs of the Esdaile collection into the papers.
