Summary

A typed copy (unsigned) of Dorothea Bleek's letter to Professor Louis Maingard, 7 April 1947, regarding the publication of her Bushman Dictionary. Dorothea encloses a letter from Professor Isaac Schapera and a copy of one from Professor Zellig Harris to him; also some copies of face types of a Verityper. She asks Maingard if the successors to the Research Grant Board (who promised £500 to the publication) would accept the method Harris proposes - the use of the Veritype process. In addition, Professor Doke's Lamba Dictionary was published by this method.
