Some photographs in this file have been removed from the main series of Haldane papers. A number have been stamped 'Time & Life Ltd' and were possibly part of a series of photographs referred to in Haldane's correspondence with Time and Life (see HALDANE/5/5/1/1). Photographs of Haldane as a child were presented to UCL Library by Professor F N David in 1967.

The papers are available at UCL Special Collections and Archives subject to the usual conditions of access to Archives and Manuscripts material, after the completion of a Reader's Undertaking.

The original material is held at UCL Special Collections. This catalogue is held by the Wellcome Library as part of Codebreakers: Makers of Modern Genetics.
