  • Archival history
    The album was given to the donor in about 1980 by Anthony Brandreth who had been a partner of the firm C Lovett Gill & Partners since 1946. The donor felt that the album should go to a publicly accessible archive and as it relates to the very early years of the partnership between Gill and Richardson asked that it be added to the Richardson, Gill & Houfe collection held by Bedfordshire & Luton Archives, which we agreed.
