It is however possible to attribute broad periods according to the address, the type of paper and the subject matter. Note that photocopies of all the Lewis letters were sent to the Barber Institute, who then sent L'Oiseau-Lyre photocopies of Louise Dyer's letters to Lewis. Pre-war letters concern publications, those from after the war, recordings.
Pre-war: 12 letters with copies of secretary's replies 1937-8. Contract for publication of Venus and Adonis, 1939. Post-war: 40 typed letters, 28 handwritten, with 24 copies of replies. From the Barber Institute the photocopies are of Louise Dyer's handwritten letters of 1953, and some from other musicians - Eric Blom (2 letters), Dyneley Hussey (5), Ibbs and Tillett (6), Leo Schrade (2), Martin Cooper (1), J Weber (l); copies of AL letters to Mrs Tillett, the Boyd Neal Orchestra, the Ambrosian SingersAccess StatusOpen for public accessRequest TypeRequest unitUnit2016.0034 Unit 0005
