Scope and Content

This series of papers reflects Bernard Cricks comprehensive record keeping in relation to his correspondence. Correspondents include family members, academics, politicians, artists and musicians, and former students.

Arrangement

Most of the records were kept in alphabetical and subsequently chronological order (working from the most recent date first). One series of records were mostly in the "Bernard Student Stuff" metal box, whilst a series of "Letters" from 1960-2000 were kept together in a filing cabinet drawer. A number of files were labelled "clients" or "people" but mostly comprised information about individuals with reference and honours requests. The files have been arranged into several sub-series.

CRCK 2/1 General correspondence files 1950-2004.

CRCK 2/2 Letters, 1960-2000.

CRCK 2/3 Clients and People files, references.
