Correspondence concerning the ZSL publications 'Nomenclator Zoologicus', 'Zoo Magazine', 'Proceedings of ZSL', and 'Transactions of ZSL'

Letters and papers relating to the position of Secretary at ZSL. In the past this position was responsible for the overall running of the Zoo(s), but in later years it has become an honorary position. The letters in particular show a breadth of correspondence between the society and people and organisations around the world.

ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, formerly known as Whipsnade Wild Animal Park, is a zoo and safari park located at Whipsnade, near Dunstable in Bedfordshire, England. It is one of two zoos (the other being ZSL London Zoo in Regent's Park, London) that are owned by the Zoological Society of London. A disastrous fire in Whipsnade's Administration block in 1962 destroyed most of the archives held at Whipsnade (except for the Whipsnade Daily Occurrences). The files listed here were the ones kept in the Offices at Regent's Park, and were therefore not lost in the fire.

Newspaper and magazine adverts, promotional leaflets and flyers. Some pasted into scrapbooks, later ones loose. Also some examples of posters for both London and Whipsnade Zoo.
