Letters received by Eleanor Bron following CP's death. The majority of these were previously in a large plastic wallet marked 'LETTERS post 10.viii.2003'. The letters are unsorted.

Mixture of Cedric Price's personal and professional effects, including clothing, pin badges, toys, cigar boxes, posters and prints, ephemera, collected postcards, and some of his iconic detachable collars.

Printed matter by or relating to Cedric Price: books, booklets, leaflets, offprints, and cuttings or whole copies of trade journals, newspapers and other serial publications, including reprographic copies. Includes exhibition-related material. See also chiefly Price 1/6/10 ('X15: Articles').

Personal and professional correspondence-- the latter significantly hybrid personal-professional-- including letters saved by Cedric Price's mother, Doreen, and subsequently by Price. Some letters from other family members to Doreen are included. Letters have been kept in their original bundles, except where material has been extracted for research purposes after CP's death and their original arrangement is no longer known.
