Content Summary:

Five notes by Charles Kingsford Smith and Jim Warner on scraps of paper, one on a telegram from the US Naval Communication service.

Also includes an original copy of Kingsford Smith and Charles Ulm's application for registration of tri-motor Fokker aircraft, c.1928; notes by Crome; and a church newsletter and photograph of Kingsford Smith memorial.

The papers in this file were transferred from the Pictures branch in 1978. It appears that prior to this they were part of a display in the National Library of Australia.
