About this work

Description

This guard book contains papers relating to celebratory events held by Burroughs Wellcome & Co, such as the opening of the Wellcome Club and Institute in 1899; the Burroughs Wellcome & Co Annual Fete and events to mark the quarter-centenary of Burroughs Wellcome & Co in 1905.

The volume has been conserved, items have been removed from the original guard books and remounted in sleeves and ringbinders. This enables researchers to easily read items (front and reverse) without damage to the original. The original order has been retained.

Due to the size of the original guard book it has been split into 2 albums.
