Content description

For correspondence relating to a particular work, publication or project, see the relevant file.

As most of the correspondence were housed loose, or according to the correspondent, the files in the series are arranged alphabetically according to the surname of the correspondent. Some general files that were filed separately, are catalogued at the end. This includes letters asking Craig to give lectures and letters sent to Craig during the year 1957.

It contains a mix of original and photocopies of autograph letters from Craig as well as typed letters and letters sent to him. The subject of the letters range broadly, with most relating to Craig’s work and addressing him in a professional capacity. However, it also includes personal letters from friends and acquaintances, which while still referencing his work, are more informal and relaxed in tone.

Additional letters both to and from Edward Gordon Craig have been acquired separately from this main series. These are catalogued under ‘Miscellaneously acquired material’, under ‘Letters from Edward Gordon Craig acquired from Michael Silverman’ and under ‘Items from the Nigel Hawthorne collection’. They are physically stored at the end of this main collection.
