2. COLEMAN MICROFILM  ("BPB") Reels A-F. Original microfilm made by historian William Coleman in Baltimore from selected papers borrowed from BPH and returned to Hancock. Microfilm deposited in 1964 in American Philosophical Society (APS) Library, Philadelphia (see Mendel Newsletter Nov 1968 and article in Centaurus 1971). Copy purchased for AGC (prior to his 1975 acquisition of BPH) is in Queen's Archives (as are his notes thereon). BPB should be a subset of BPH. These letters are numbered 1-1326 in the John Innes Institute collection.

SECTION G "BPH" (Bateson Papers from Hancock, USA) This corresponds closely to the collection AGC repatriated in 1975 for deposition (after curation) in Cambridge University Library, with copies for the John Innes (Norwich, circa 1981), and for himself (to Queen's University Archives 2008). [Note that excluded from "BPH" were papers at Hancock deemed more relevant to Gregory Bateson ("The Bateson Family Papers"). These were taken by David Lipset to assist his biography of GB (see Gregory Bateson collection at UC Santa Cruz). Deposited in the APS library (by Mary Catherine Bateson) in 1980. Later copies made for the John Innes Institute.]
