[ E. M. O'R. Dickey, Irish wood engraver. ] Two ALsS, two TLsS and an ANS (all 'E. M. O'R. Dickey'), to K. W. Luckhurst and W. Perry of the Royal Society of Arts, concerning the Sanderson 'Travelling Bursary for a teacher of art'.

The seven items in good condition, on lightly-aged and worn paper. With stamps of the Royal Society of Arts. The letter to Perry is a typed report of 2pp., folio, and more heavily worn than the rest of the correspondence. It is dated 11 August 1936, and discusses 'schemes similar to Sandersons [...] in which a firm offers work experience as part of a course taken by full-time students not previously employed in industry' and 'part-time release'. He discusses the only two cases of 'works experience': the first at Keighley with Messrs Stapley's, and the second between Messrs Courtaulds and the Central School of Arts and Crafts. There are also references to 'Sir Thomas Barlow who took two students of Salford School of Art into his works', Stourbridge, Pick, Vidgen-Jenks, Leicester, and Hull College. Luckhurst's three TLsS, two ALsS and ANS (totalling 4pp., 4to; 2pp., 12mo) continue the same theme in relation to the Society's business, with references to the Keighley Art School, 'the unrevised report of Miss Richardson's talk', the Industrial Art Bursaries Board, 'the Distribution of Diplomas by the Duke of Gloucester', and 'the sub-committee which is to administer the Travelling Bursary for a teacher of art generously provided by Mr. Sanderson'.
