Notebook cover marked 'S.O Book 124 Supplied for the Public Service'. The notebook also contains a letter to Waddington from a David D. Perkins, Department of Zoology, Columbia University, dated 29 August 1947, concerning Waddington's consideration of work on myxomycetes/slime moulds. As Waddington did not go on to work notably with these organisms, it appears that this area of work was purely exploratory.
