The previous History talk 22/1/ on the UCL archives was very interesting. The range of material on Galton and the Pearsons is amazing. There is the academic paraphernalia but also great grandpa Galton's wallet, little Egon's professorial colouring book, ..
For me the most valuable aspect of these meetings is the opportunity they give for talking to people who really know what's in the archives.
