Scope and Contents
In July 1972, Mr. Greenhill, Director of the National Maritime Museum, sends Finlay a letter thanking him for donated prints and catalogues and mentions the validity of depicting "Little Secret" on stone as an average topsail schooner. The next letter from Finlay to George Thomson dated Dec 1973 discusses the significance of a printer's sign (meaning reverse order of letters) and the drawing of the image for "Little Secret." Finlay also sends a letter to James Allen requesting red sandstone for this project. In June 1974, Thomson sends a letter to Finlay in a exceptional calligraphic script indicating that illness has prevented him from completing "Numbered Sails" (aka Little Secret).

Scope and Contents
In Sep 1973, Finlay writes to Michael Harvey requesting that Harvey and Goodricke make a ceramic-concrete maquette, based upon a Ron Costley sketch, for the Stuttgart Max Plank project. Finlay provides detailed instructions on the lettering for the work. A month later, he comments on the Harvey efforts indicating that he wants a "Matisse'y" effect which depends upon a flat surface as opposed to a kinetic effect that looses the balance between the visual and the word part. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
