| Content and context |
This series contains documents collected by Keynes concerning Richard Thomas and Co., Ltd. His interest may have been sparked when vetting an article about the company submitted to the 'New Statesman and Nation' in 1938 (and published in the same year as 'The Ebbw Vale Affair'), or the collection may be related to his duties as director of the Bank of England, since a control committee including the Governor of the Bank was established to manage the company's affairs in 1938, after it was bailed out by the government. |
