His Excellency stressed that the objects of Intermediate Legacy were to foster the spirit of comradeship, self-sacrifice and service, and to establish a high standard of citizenship and a spirit of responsibility in national development. 'Anything to do with Legacy has the strongest support of Lady Norrie and myself,' continued the Governor. 'Membership of Intermediate Legacy is open to the children of deceased servicemen who have passed the age of 16. There is no upper limit, although in 1945 a Senior Intermediate Club was formed in Adelaide for men returned from the services, or who, ineligible for service, had attained the age of 25.

Audio - Recording, tape, Rt. Hon. John. G. Gorton C.H., M.P
The tape has not been played but from the label it is presumed to be a recording of John Gorton to launch Legacy week. For many years the main time of year for fundraising is September when Legacy holds 'Legacy Week'. Often there is a celebrity who would launch the appeal so presumably John Gorton recorded a message. John Gorton flew for the RAAF in World War 11, and was Prime Minister of Australia.A record that celebrities were part of the Legacy Appeals in the 1970s.Black magnetic tape on a clear plastic spool in a red cardboard box.Box, RCA, Magnetic Tape, For your recorder, Extra strength, Professional standard, Splice free, 600Ft. 1.5 mil polyester 5" reel, type 15M-6, 1.5 mil polyester, RCA type 1.5m-6.

Postcard, Lac Leman (Lake Geneva), c.1910s
Postcards were a common form of souvenirs for soldiers who were travelling either during World War 1, or just after, or while returning to Australia. This postcard with other World War 1 memorabilia that has come from Private John Basil McLean, 2nd Reinforcements, 37th Battalion, A.I.F. There was a large collection of postcards so he may have been collecting them as souvenirs. J.B. McLean (Service No. 13824) was from near Maffra, Victoria and enlisted on 22 January 1916. He embarked on 16 December 1916 for Europe. His full war record is available from AWM. He spent time with the Australian Field Artillery (Pack Section). At the end of the war he worked for a year at the A.I.F. Headquarters in London before returning to Australia on the 'Ceramic', arriving in Portsea in 1920.Postcards were a very common form of communication during the first World War. Postcards as souvenirs or as correspondence would have been familiar to the first Legatees as they had served in World War 1.Standard size postcard with image depicting Lac Leman (or Lake Geneva). The image in its current condition shows a pastel coloured sky and a small island within the lake.Front - “Lac Leman/ 6211/CHARNAUX FRERES & CO., GENEVH” Back - “CARTE POSTALE/ Mrs Mercer? / The Nook / Combe Down / Somerset”souvenir, war correspondence -
