TCG Letter #1426 / Carpenter Letter #137d

Tolkien writes to P.H. Newby of the BBC. Newby had been negotiating to broadcast some of Tolkien's translation of Sir Gawain but pressures meant that he did not send a finished version. If the BBC wish to broadcast it Tolkien is happy to send his finished translation with introductory remarks.

The program would finally be delivered on the BBC later in the year.^{Sunday 6 December, 1953 (https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/9ae6bbbb38eb417da2e29cabcf02200e).[1]}
