'Tabloid' Monthly Memoranda

This publication was a revival of the monthly bulletin of technical and scientific information, which was issued to Burroughs Wellcome & Co. representative staff until 1940, when it was necessary to suspend it's publication (due to production difficulties). Its post-war publication began with the March 1947 edition, with circulation extended to include pharmacists. In spite of the title, it was not possible for the company to publish a monthly edition from 1947-1950 due to paper restictions at that time.

Included here are 9 of the 10 editions (Edition 10, which contained an index of the series, is missing) published under the title ''Tabloid' Monthly Memoranda' as follows:

March 1947
May 1947
July 1947
October 1947
February 1948
June 1948
November 1948 (Number 7)
1949 (Number 8)
1950 (Number 9)

In 1951 a new series was published, which followed on from the ''Tabloid' Monthly Memoranda', entitled ''Tabloid' Memoranda' which was to be produced 6 times a year, in annual volumes. New features were contained in this publication that had not existed in its predecessor, for example, each issue had reproductions from the great classical medical works.

Included here is an incomplete run of ''Tabloid' Memoranda' which contains the following editions of Volume 1:

Volume 1: Number 1 - 1951
Volume 1: Number 2 - 1951
Volume 1: Number 3 - 1951
Volume 1: Number 4 - 1952
