This series includes: miscellaneous newspaper cuttings dealing with a wide variety of topics, such as taxis, pharmacy trading hours, national parks, strikes and industrial disputes, pollution and book censorship in Australia; and further cuttings, press releases and pamphlets arranged in a subject sequence, including topics as far-ranging as West Irian Jaya, Australia's defence policy, Vietnam, student demonstrations, the United Nations nuclear non-proliferation treaty, doctors' fees, roads in New South Wales, the Great Barrier Reef, the Post Office, Sydney City Council, the F-111, the Australian Broadcasting Commission, Sydney Airport, airline disputes, wool, Papua New Guinea, liquor laws and Sunday hotel trading in New South Wales.

Many of the cuttings have been annotated by Slessor or have handwritten or typed notes attached.
