Collection SHA - Shaw, Richard ‘Dick’ (Collection)

The 8 books that were part of this collection have been catalogued onto the Library catalogue, and shelved in the Rare Book Room due to their enclosures:
BGVK2: Trees in Rotterdam by Julia Voskuill et al- includes 2 letters in envelope attached to front cover, the first from R Shaw to Mr van Hoey Smith at Arboretum Trompenburg, dated 29/05/1985, congratulating him on the book, pointing out a tree growing at Benmore (Pinus peuce, p.71 - is Shaw saying it's uncredited?) and asking the identity of the tree bark on the front cover. The 2nd letter is the reply from van Hoey Smith, dated 05/06/1985, identifying the tree as Taxodium ascendens (p67) and sending Shaw a free copy of the book, presumably this one.
