The first section contains papers relating to the life, work, and character of Smith. The first series (MS ADD 426/A/1) contains material about Smith assembled by friends, colleagues and peers, primarily in contribution to an obituary, and his candidature for election to the Royal Society. It also contains a quasi-autobiographical work (actually a biography of the fictional mathematician Blanche Descartes), and papers referring to Smith's academic legacy, being a programme for a symposium on Smith's work on linkage analysis, and correspondence about his personal archive. Other series in this section relate to Smith's work prior to and outside his position at UCL, including his PhD thesis, correspondence with the Skinners on "squared squares", papers of Charles H Henshaw, notes on number theory and topology, and papers relating to the work of the Conflict Research Society. The second section contains articles accumulated by Smith relating to colour vision, arranged in rough alphabetical order by author or topic. The third section contains drafts, offprints and lectures by Smith. The first series (MS ADD 426/C/1) of drafts comprises manuscript and typescript drafts of reviews and articles, and first proofs of reviews and articles (there are draft and proof versions of most of the articles present in this series). The second series (MS ADD 426/C/2) contains a set of offprints bearing index numbers (relating to an index in MS ADD 426/A/1/7), a set of unnumbered offprints, and press cuttings featuring published letters by Smith.
