Approximately 6,000 items originally arranged in 50 wrapped bundles. Mostly letters but also articles, poems, clippings, obituaries and business papers dating from the time when John Nichols (1745-1826), his son John Bowyer Nichols (1779-1863), and his grandson John Gough Nichols (1806-1873) were editors of the magazine. Some of the letters have philatelic interest; see especially Boxes 23 and 24. Also, a few papers of T.N. Brushfield, former owner, ca. 1895.
