The Maurice Rosenbaum Letters is a collection of letters written by Maurice Rosenbaum to his friend, Cecil Lubell. The letters are written from Maurice, in London, to Cecil, on the East Coast of America, between 1935 and 1987. They begin after the friends first met during Cecil’s visit to Leeds in 1935. The vast timespan of the collection, over fifty-two years, gives us a unique insight into the daily life of one person throughout their life. The collection was donated to Leeds Central Library in 2019 by Stephen Lubell, the son of recipient Cecil. Leeds Central Library became home to the collection due to the friends’ strong family links to Leeds. This blog post will further explore Maurice and Cecil’s Yorkshire connections.
