A considerable collection of autograph letters, postcards and telegrams to and from Rupert Brooke, about Brooke and between members of Brooke's circle.

There are series of letters between Brooke and Noel Olivier, Margery Olivier, Brynhild Olivier, Daphne Olivier and Dudley Ward, as well as a smaller number of individual letters from Brooke. Next, there are letters, often from Brooke's friends and acquaintances, that mention Brooke or his work directly. These include thirty six letters from Edward Marsh to Siegfried Sassoon, a series of letters between Adrian Stephen and Clive Bell, and a series of letters about a production of 'Lithuania' by Viola Tree. Finally, there are letters to and from members of Brooke's circle that don't specifically mention Brooke, including letters from Mary R.
