Mode de classement
It was decided that the nurserymen catalogues and the RBGE guidebook would be more pertinent and get more use from browsers if they were stored with the other catalogues and guidebooks in the RBGE Library, so the items were marked 'ex-libris Mackenzie' and moved there, leaving the seed tin and reprint to be stored at McK in the Archives.
