So presumably you aren’t going to get transfers from the British Library or Kings College? They have quite a few of them. Not cheap I know, but you might be waiting a while to find them otherwise!

I have number 37 for you and hope to get it transferred soon, so I can send you the record.

I just could not afford it and i could not really justify the expense with my illness being in its latter stages if you catch my drift.....My sister & I would be good of you, many thanks

Sorry to hear that, it’s a pity you might not get to hear the recordings then.
