I'm looking for the PDF version/scan of Henry P McKean Jr.'s paper on propagation of chaos. The reference is as follows -

Propagation of chaos for a class of non-linear parabolic equations., In Stochastic Differential Equations (Lecture Series in Differential Equations, Session 7, Catholic Univ., 1967) (1967): 41-57.

The paper/chapter has been cited numerous times (being one of the first papers in the field) but nowhere online can I find a pdf version of it. It seems to me that most people who cite it haven't actually seen/read it.

    $\begingroup$ Did you try going to the library? Ours (otherwise unremarkable) collection has a copy, so surely they must have one at the Imperial College where you are based. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I believe there is a facility to borrow books from the British library. I would be surprised if they didn't have it. Thanks for the suggestion. $\endgroup$

I am not sure whether there is still a quest for McKean's original paper, but as a nice substitute, you can take a look at the very recent review paper on "propagation of chaos". Theorem 5.1 there is a result due to McKean and the original proof of him is presented (starting from page 86).
