Minutes and letters covering the organisation of Miss Helen M. Simpson's testimonial. This took place while the College was temporarily housed in Scarborough during WW2. The College buildings in Leeds having been once again requisitioned for military use.

Postcard of the Grange sent by Harry Buttress to his mother Rosehannah in 1932. With a covering letter by his daughter written in 2010.

These letters were written by the portrait painter Howard Somerville to M. T. Woodhouse a Senior Tutor at the City of Leeds Training College. They are concerned with the commission of a portrait of retiring Principal of the College, Dr. John R. Airey. Somerville had earlier been commissioned to paint the portrait of Airey's predecessor Walter Parsons. It seems Somerville as a favour to the College reduced his rates for the Airey commission.
