Historical information

Colour slide of a legatee talking with a widow under a sign saying 'Legal'. He appears to be recording the conversation in a tape recorder. It was at the Christmas party at Government House. Melbourne Legacy held an annual Christmas Party for Junior Legatees and Widows at Government House for many years.
The year is unknown but likely to be during the 1950s. A group of slides in glass mounts with green tape are probably from a couple of consecutive years. They will be catalogued separately.
Was with many other slides taken in the 1950s and 1960s. The slides have been photographed to make digital images and moved to archive quality sleeves. In many cases the original images were not well focussed and the digital image is the best available.

Significance

A record of Legatees providing advice to a widow during a Legacy Christmas party held at Government House.

Physical description

Colour slide of a legatee interviewing a widow and child at a Legacy Christmas party at Government House, in a glass mount with green tape.
