Part of Hilda and Rusty Bernstein Papers

From various prisons, of which some seem to have been written by former inmates, including: an outline of sections/chapters and a Prologue describing Hilda and Rusty Bernstein's arrest on the 8 April 1960; accounts from the Rooi Hell in Port Elizabeth, and accounts of the practise of separating African prisoners at the Johannesburg Prison The Fort.

Some of the accounts and sections are incomplete, but all have been numbered throughout, pages 1-57.
