Thompson for him to write a piece on Nixon for a 'Good-bye Dick' feature in The Sunday Times Magazine; copyright for an illustration submitted for the book, The English Difference; issues over the journalist, Hans Gamber, using Law's work without payment for the former's new publication; requests to the London Library for Law to be given access on behalf of The Sunday Times; and a potential offer of work from the publication, Novum Gebruachsgraphik.
