Book, Printed Forms. Junior Legacy

Historical information

This portfolio of printed forms, letters and reports has been assembled to show how Melbourne Legacy, in the past, has kept in contact with Legatees, widows, their families and the records of the above mentioned. The information would be typed or handwritten, then posted and delivered to Legacy Melbourne, Legatees or widows and families.
Types of form include 'First Contact Form' to record the details of the families. Also printed cards for noting dental appointments. A typical letter that is sent to the widow on Legacy receiving news of the death of an ex-serviceman.
One of the proforma letters is signed by Legatee A Dore who was President in 1965 so the forms are from the 1960s.
