Series 11

Content Summary:

This series consists of speeches and notes written by Crisp for J. B. Chifley, John Curtin, H. V. Evatt, J. J. Dedman and other government ministers on a wide range of issues relevant to government. Crisp had originally arranged the material alphabetically by subject in binders. The papers have been removed from the binders and placed in folders.

Immediate source of acquisition:

The papers were received by the Library from Mrs Helen Crisp in several instalments in 1976, 1979, 1981, 1985, 1986 and 1988. The papers purchased in 1985 make up the bulk of the collection. At this time Crisp's extensive personal book library was also donated to the Library under the Taxation Incentives for the Arts Scheme.
