Scope and content
PP/18/9/6/5

Pritchard refers to Isokon's role in the development of modern design and mentions the interest of people and journals such as Hugh Dalton and the Architectural Review. All that is left, however, is a limited stock amounting to £200. But if this stock were sold through Heal's, with Harris Lebus making it known that the firm was interested in contemporary design, interest might be generated. As Isokon is intimately associated with Jack Pritchard he would like all Isokon furniture to be dealt with by Harris Lebus rather than dispersing the rights. He mentions Herbert Read, [Nikolaus] Pevsner, John Gloag, Gowen Richards, George Cooke, [C.E.] Every, Mr Breeze, Anthony Heal, and Geoffrey Dunn as sources of further information. Two copies. With covering letter [PP/18/9/6/5].
