Box 1 – 1st-3rd Accrual
- Eight cards, one of them framed. Although all contain handwritten poems, some, but not all of the cards, are printed. On one of the cards is the note, "hand-coloured by Wilson MacDonald for Arthur Huddleson". One is written to Ann Meriden, a child. Her photograph is pasted on the card.
- "Elizabeth the Second" written "for Percy Gardiner". Although not dated, it was presumably written on Queen Elizabeth's succession to the throne.
- Two printed cards and a book, "An Ode on the Diamond Jubilee of Confederation" (1927). The printed cards each contain a handwritten poem by MacDonald -- one is titled "Immanence" while the other is not titled. It begins "i never think of God".
