Scope and content
Terry Senter updates Jack Pritchard on the progress with his research on [Laszlo] Moholy-Nagy

He has seen John Piper, Myfanwy Evans, Vincent Korda, J.G. Crowther and Leslie Martin and had spoken with Edith Antal and Richard Carline. "Carline mentioned a proposed English Bauhaus that Gropius discussed with several people including himself, [Henry] Moore and Ronald Penrose... [John] Gloag and yourself". Terry Senter also mentions other people who have been linked with Moholy-Nagy, John Mathias, "the Sussex lawyer who financed one of Moholy's English films", Richard Kostelanetz, Herbert Read, Miso Braunfels, [Max] Nicholson and [Barbara] Hepworth and [John] Betjeman. Claudia Moholy-Nagy "reservedly suggested that I might see her father's English films". Other contacts included Ise Gropius, [Marcel] Breuer, [Gyorgy] Kepes and Harry Blacker, H.P. Juda, the Stedelijk Museum and Sandberg, a Dutch friend of Moholy-Nagy who became Director of the Museum in the 30's. Also they thought that Paul Citroen might be able to help", and Wells Coates' daughter [Laura Cohn]. He also intended to contact Richard Carr.

Terry Senter also discusses attempts made to organize a lecture for Jack Pritchard at the University of Nottingham through Ronald Pickervance
