INVITATIONS AND RELATED CORRESPONDENCE [1971-1975]
Creator(s): 
Fraser, John Malcolm [1930-2015]

Invitations received by J M (Malcolm) Fraser from April 1971 to March 1975. During this period, Mr Fraser was a backbencher (March-August 1971) and Minister for Education and Science (August 1971-December 1972) in the McMahon Government, then a member of the Opposition (December 1972-March 1975) during the Whitlam Labor Government. He was also actively representing his electorate of Wannon in Victoria's Western District. Consequently the invitations relate to various Parliamentary, diplomatic, vice-regal and Liberal Party functions, as well as events organised by educational institutions, business groups and community organisations. Many of the invitations (whether cards or letters) have associated correspondence attached to them. There are also some publications (booklets, posters) and photographs. Some items are currently held at the National Archives of Australia (see list for details). Formerly National Archives of Australia series M441.
