Overview

Correspondence (mostly incoming, some outgoing), producer's archives, authorial archives, and printed ephemera from English actor, theatre manager, and producer William Poel (1852-1934). Mrs Poel ("E.C.P") and Savage seem to have annotated the material; some items had been annotated by Poel prior to his death.
