A new supplement to Marshall’s Official Papers, the main volume of which, edited by Keynes, appeared in 1926. The contents are as follows: Marshall’s evidence to the committee on higher education in Wales and Monmouthshire (1880); a note to the Gold and Silver Commission (1888); extracts from the final report of the Royal Commission on Labour (1894); Marshall’s examination of witnesses before that Commission (1892); a memorandum on trade disputes (dated by Groenewegen at 1893); and a Treasury document which has in the past been attributed to Marshall.

Peter Groenewegen also published a biography of Alfred Marshall, A Soaring Eagle: Alfred Marshall, 1824-1924, in the same year.
