- Abstract: The file contains printed copies (all in Arabic, most with English translations) of public notices issued by the Government of Bahrain between July 1943 and October 1945. Most of the notices are signed by the British Adviser to the Government of Bahrain, Charles Dalrymple Belgrave.The notices cover a wide range of issues pertaining to the day-to-day running of the government, including taxation of various types (pilgrims, cars, boats, radios), immigration and passports, import restrictions, quarantine fees, and property rights. Some notices allude to the impact of the Second World War upon Bahrain and its inhabitants, namely the rationing of foodstuffs (folio 33), black market goods (folio 35), and paper shortages (folio 26).Physical description: Foliation: The main foliation system begins on the front cover and runs to the inside back cover. It uses pencil numbers written in the top-right corner of each recto. Foliation errors: 1A, 1B.The legibility of many items in the file is poor, where double-sided printing has been used on thin paper.
