Miscellaneous

The “Miscellaneous” section of the Northcroft collection is another section that was created in the making of this inventory. Unique to the Northcroft collection are the envelope of correspondence, the envelope of photographs, and the Biographical. All photographs are also in digital form. Contact the Macmillan Brown Library for copyright information and access to the photographs. The Charter, Indictment, and Japanese Constitution was prepared by Major General Richard J. Marshall, (General Staff Corps, Chief of Staff. General Headquarters Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers). The Northcroft collection is also particularly fortunate to include a full and contemporary – possibly original – copy of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg’s Judgment and Rulings.

The envelope of correspondence includes correspondence between Justice Northcroft and C. W. Collins (Librarian University of Canterbury College) and the Chairman of the College Council of University of Canterbury College, in January 1949. It also includes correspondence between the Librarian of University of Canterbury College and the New Zealand Department of External Affairs in July - August 1949 regarding attaining copies of the IMTFE Judgment to fill in gaps left by Northcroft's donations.
