| Title | Letter from [William Napier] Shaw, Meteorological Office, South Kensington, London, S.W, to Professor Arthur Schuster, Secretary, Royal Society, Burlington House, W |
| Creator | Shaw; Sir; William Napier (1854 - 1945) |
| Date | 23 July 1914 |
| Description | Discusses at length the registration of the Kew Observatory Monogram as a trademark of the National Physical Laboratory. Recounts the history of negotiations regarding the transfer of the observatory's administration and raises no objection to the registration. However, stresses the importance of the Royal Society's decision in this matter and suggest that the use of the Kew Monogram by the Laboratory may become increasingly difficult to justify in the future. |
