===================== HES POSTING ====================
[NOTE: Daniele has asked for private responses, but in the interest of
extending the items listed in the HES Internet Guide to Archival Resources
in the History of Economics, I would ask those who have information for
him to also reply to the list or to carbon copy the info to me

Dear HES-ers,
I am editing Roy Harrod's inter-war papers and correspondence.
Harrod was an appassionate hoarder, and kept thousands of letters which are
now preserved in a number of archives in England, Japan and the US. So far,
for the inter-war years I have found about 3,000 letters to and from him,
half of which purely personal.
I will only publish a selection of Harrod's writings: those on
economics, politics, philosophy, and other professional activities, leaving
out the personal stuff. However, I am listing all the letters I have so far
found and giving details regarding their location, so that researchers
interested in other topics will be able to consult them.
I would greatly appreciate if subscribers to this list could let me
know where collections of Harrodiana could be located. I am principally
interested in the inter-war years, but I am also storing information
relating to the subsequent years, which I will make available to
researchers who would like to edit the remainder of Harrod's papers and
correspondence. I would also be grateful for addresses of other mailing
lists whose subscribers could be of help in this search.
I have of course examined the most obvious souces -e.g. the Keynes,
Robertson, Robinson, Meade, Hawtrey, Kahn, Kaldor, Henderson etc. papers. I
have not, however, been able to find out where the papers of the following
people are held (whom I know have corresponded with Harrod):

F. W. Taussig; L. Fraser; James Bonar; O. Morgenstern; Humphrey Mynors; J.
