Many thanks to Aonghus for the suggestion that this document which in some ways was the start of the Archive should represent the 15th anniversary. This post here from July 2007 was the unknowing genesis of the Archive, an overview of the fine publication, The Bell, edited by Peadar O’Donnell and Sean Ó Faoláin. It wasn’t possible to non-destructively copy the entirety of the book in a scanner so only a few pages were scanned and sections transcribed for the text, but the seed was planted there and then – ‘what if left documents were scanned and copied’. And the rest is the Left Archive.

So it seems appropriate to put a scan of the document in the Archive and to note that anniversary.
