I suspect more and more of these singlets will be uncovered as the letters of Tolkien's other colleagues come to light. What we could do with a larger collection of the letters.
This one is most interesting--one wonders if more is available from this association with Mroczkowski. I'd like to see the comments on the Robinson Chaucer in the next lot. But pricey, eh?

Hopefully someday a revised version of the "letters" book will come out, with all these other additions having been made.
After all, with basically no new works on M-e available, new letters surfacing could bring some fresh information, maybe even some new debate topics... I would surely enjoy that.
