Notes
These images were removed from their original section of the Wellcome Foundation papers, to be photographed for Roy Church, as part of work for 'Burroughs Wellcome & Co.: Knowledge, Trust, Profit, and the Transformation of the British Pharmaceutical Industry, 1880-1940' (2007).
As the original order of images 15 and 63 could no longer be ascertained, they were placed in this file: which appeared to be the file they were most likely removed from.
