Thanks are also due to the staff of Glasgow University Library's Department of Special Collections, to Jeni Bain for her fund-raising efforts, and to the owners of loaned items, including Paul Kingsley of the Piccolo Theatre, and Una MacLean. Elizabeth Watson runs the Scottish Theatre Archive single- handedly on a day-today basis, and her continuing commitment to the Archive deserves a special mention.

Finally, without the enthusiasm, generosity and constant support of the N.S. Macfariane Charitable Trust, and above all of Jimmy Logan himself, none of this would have happened at all.
