NHM-WP08.001
Printed:
1876--1900
Four botanical pamphlets by Richard Spruce 1866-1887, three with annotations in A. R. Wallace's hand (c. 1907?), one botanical work by Matthew B Slater 1906; printed obituary notice of Spruce by Isaac Bayley Balfour 1900, with passages marked (by A. R. Wallace?) and printed memoir of George Bentham by J D Hooker, 1898. Notes: Last date based on the fact that A. R. Wallace was working on his edition of Spruce's "Notes of a Botanist on the Amazon and Andes" in 1906 and 1907.(See letters from A. R. Wallace on the subject, mainly 1907). All the pamphlets have been put into one acid-free envelope but should probably go into individual acid-free containers. PJL 15/4/03
