    Nobody has the other sides of the correspondances? How did the receiving parties not preserve their letters from Orwell?

      It sounds like this was the receiving party: letters from Orwell to his publisher (and other papers related to publishing his work, like contracts and internal memos). if Orwell had kept copies for his records, I suspect they would already be properly archived, yes.
