The collection includes materials donated or loaned by a variety of individuals and organisations including the estate of celebrated model and photographer Lady Lee Miller Penrose and legendary chef Michel Bourdin.
The collection can be used free of charge by all students of Westminster Kingsway College or external users who wish to access materials for educational research.
