• Presidential Address by Frank Gilbertson to the Swansea Royal Metal Exchange (October 1918).
  Original drawing of Frank Gilbertson by Harold Morgan (newspaper cartoonist of the “Cambria Daily Leader” and later “The South Wales Daily Post”) “regarded as more typical of him than any of the few photographs he ever permitted” [23]. Frank warned of serious economic problems on the horizon as the artificial prosperity of wartime gave way to normal international trading competition in peacetime. He appealed for cooperation from all sides of industry in meeting the reconstruction challenges ahead.
• Frank and Molly (Mary) in the stables kitchen garden at Glynteg, Pontardawe (1904).
  Molly (Mary) is sitting on a side wall while Frank stands holding a gate on the path leading from the kitchen garden of his stables [1] toward the terraced orchard and woodland of Cwmdu below. Mary would later become the owner of Glynteg following her marriage. The iron gate survives to this day in the Author’s garden.
• “The Old Lady” of Glanmor, Frank’s Mother-in-Law, Mrs. Mary Dulcibella Thomas (née Eden) (1834 – 1909) with her second daughter Miss Dulcibel Thomas (1872-1951).
  Mrs. Mary Dulcibella Thomas (née Eden) (1834 – 1909) with her second daughter Miss Dulcibel Thomas (1872-1951) outside the drawing room window at Glanmor House, Sketty, Swansea. (The Edens were trusted managers at Vivian and Sons Ltd. The site of Glanmor House is now Long Oaks Court near Myrtle Grove and Glanmor Park Road.) Mrs. Thomas was the second wife of Illtid Thomas (1812 – 89) and Isabel, their eldest daughter, was the first of their children to get married. Frank got on well with his sister-in-law Dulcie and she was a welcome guest on adventurous continental motoring trips.
• Timeline from 1890 onwards showing important events in Frank Gilbertson’s life and the variations in economic performance of W. Gilbertson & Co. Ltd.
  The total percentage dividend payable on ordinary share capital (as compiled in Table 2 of Peter Jackson’s book [4, p. 245]) is plotted in blue for each financial year. No dividend was paid in 1903 and 1904 to allow profits to be re-invested in new plant, which repaid handsomely over the next few years. In contrast, after 1920 profits dwindled and there are no records of dividend payments after 1925. Frank’s increasing involvement with establishing the University College of Swansea is indicated below the time axis from 1916 onwards, with his two periods as President after the Foundation on 19th July 1920 shown by the solid red line.
