1 cm of textual records and other materials

The two autographed photographs (one for Gwen Duchmenin, and one taken by Margaret Sheppard) were previously framed and hung in John Beckwith's home. They were donated to the Music Library in 2024 and added to this file, based on correspondence in the file that mentions Guerrero photographs collected by Beckwith, Ray Dudley, and William Aide for the memorial tribute to Guerrero at the University of Toronto Faculty of Music (October 1990).
