Why and how OPAL began and how it worked

Three typescript drafts about One People of Australia League (OPAL), written by Muriel Langford. These expand on the untitled manuscript about how OPAL began but with more information about Muriel's personal experiences in India and when she arrived in Australia and greater detail about how OPAL began and what it did.

Many of the pages in the first draft are on the back of other material; some pages have been pasted or sticky taped together; has no title, 23 leaves in length; undated; accompanied by a short summary, perhaps for a speech.

The second draft is on continuous computer paper and has the title 'Why and how OPAL began, and how it worked'; has handwritten emendations; 28 leaves, numbered; on the last page handwritten in blue pen is 'Copyright ME Langford, 1989 and'.

The third draft is on continuous computer paper and has the title 'Why and how OPAL began, and how it worked'; has handwritten note on the first page 'Draft Reminiscences. E & OE!! Copyright' ; 28 leaves, numbered; on the last page handwritten note 'PO [?] Muriel Langford. Copyright'.
