KSL: Bulletin of the Kate Sharpley Library No. 67, July 2011 has just been posted on the site. You can get to the contents here or read the full pdf here.
(This includes the second part of The Kate Sharpley Library Then, Now and Next: An Interview with Barry Pateman)
The website also mentions the new publication Anarchism In Galicia : Organisation, Resistance and Women in the Underground.
Russian anarchist exile and prisoner letters in Yiddish
“… Letters in Yiddish
And is there a Yiddish translator out there who could help with handwritten letters from anarchist prisoners and exiles, including the mysterious Max Chernyak? Familiarity with Russian would help.”
Exiled Russian anarchist portraits in Amsterdam
The International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam has a set of portraits of exiled Russian anarchists from the Fléchine (Senya Fleshin) collection. (And an exiled Italian anarchist, Ghezzi.)
Details of the Fléchine collection are here:

These photos are housed at the International Institute of Social History, and they’d like a copy of any print publications they appear in (for their library). The initial identification work was done by the Kate Sharpley Library.
Can you put names of any other faces?
