(20)⁂ George West was a teacher at Bedford Modern School which was attended by Fry. Rather charmingly Fry addresses the letters to "Mr West", seemingly in deference to their original teacher-pupil relationship. The letters, which are dated between 28th June 1951 and 28th November 1966 cover a good part of Fry's early career and include discussions of his work and general life. An excellent group, many of the books include West's ownership inscription.
