Okay. I do remember that some 1951 pages were missing, and must have dropped
out, plus now the 1955 ones ehich I can look for. I can also check in case I
did skipped the odd page in those books.😊

Hi Tony,
It looks to me like a section came out of the binding but Christine has just
sent me to attached list.
Be great if we could find them. They may be in the store because that’s where
the index books were until the middle of last year. It was me badgering Josh
and him letting me visit the store that re-located them.
I believe the disappearance may date back a couple of decades but there is
quite a lot of mixed up related items with the negatives in the store that
might just contain what we need.
Best of luck,
Chris

Hi Chris- are you able to be more specific about the 1955 missing pages? It’s
possible I missed a few as 1955 was the first couple of books I did. I can also
check as I am in the Museum on Monday and can check with Josh.
Tony

Good news!
Tony tells me that he has now retrieved all the remaining index volumes from
the museum and hope to start scanning them in a week or two.
That means that those of you who are twiddling your thumbs won’t have too long
to wait!
However when trying to look up some negatives of the Duke of Edinburgh for the
Herald this week I discovered that they were on pages missing from the 1955
negatives book*. That reminded me that some of you had reported missing pages.
Looking at the volume scan it looks like quite a large section of pages may
have dropped (or been pulled) from the binding over the years. What I’m
wondering is if the missing sections might just be languishing unloved in the
museum store. Next time I’m there I’ll have a little furtle about and see if I
can turn them up (I’ve already got a large box of miscellaneous unindexed
negatives that I’m working through and there is some fascinating and important
stuff included amongst that which might easily have been overlooked ).
Can I please ask you all therefore to check the volumes you have worked on for
missing pages/ranges of numbers? If you can let me have them as and when, I’ll
then compile a list for when I go hunting.
Thanks,
Chris
* I found the DofE negatives because I noted the numbers from the relevant
newspaper issues in the days when they included neg numbers in the captions. At
worst we can eventually reverse built the missing index partly once the papers
have been scanned – but that is going to be a long while away I suspect.
