Scope and content
2 reprints written by H.H. Hu and gifted to W.W. Smith, rather than be withdrawn from the collection, 2 reprints were selected to be archived in order to provide a tangible link to one of the Chinese botanists who worked at RBGE in the 1930s, of whom little evidence is left in the RBGE Archives.
- 'Smithiodendron, a new Genus of Moraceae' by H.H. Hu, Separate from Sunyatsenia, vol. 3, No. 2-3, issued May 12, 1936, signed to W.W. Smith by Hu.
- 'Recent Progress in Botanical Exploration in China' by H.H. Hu, Reprinted from the Journal of the R.H.S. vol.LXIII, Part 8, 1938, signed to W.W. Smith by Hu, has Smith's stamp and a Christmas postcard sent to Smith as an insert.
