Sales & Numbers

PR23.2.6.9-1 (Redacted).jpg

A letter from Puffin detailing the total sales of Mice Maths so far.

PR23.1.57.9.jpg

A royalty statement which lists the amount of books sold.

Due to the contracts that Rose signed, there would be normal installments of royalty cheques for the books and each time the statements would report on the books sold and the precentage Rose would receive, which are called royalties. These notices would eventually end after the book is taken out of circulation and no longer sold.

Within the Archive there are letters and royalty cheques that she kept for her record of sales of her books. Some of these receipts show books being sold around the world in Australia, China, and America.
