Working files

A series of 21 files containing material produced and/or collected by Peto including correspondence, assignment notes, Peto's writings (fiction and non-fiction), material on the political situation in Postwar Hungary and obituaries. These were almost certainly rehoused by Stan Turner, University of Dundee after the collection was deposited with the University. However it is likely they are largely in the order Peto filled them.
