Original University of Queensland degree certificate awarded to Walde Gerard Fisher for a Bachelor of Arts with first class honours in the School of Classics, 10 May 1916; and ten original dance card program cards relating to dances Walde Fisher attended between June 1913 and October 1914. Most include handwritten recordings of dance partners by Walde Fisher, and some have coloured pencils attached with coloured cotton yarn.

The dance cards are all small booklets made of lightweight card with the schedule of dances printed on inside the booklet on the left-hand side. On the right-hand side of the booklet there is a space to write, with the pencil provided, the name of dance partner for each dance. Occasionally the dance cards are a double-sided card rather than a booklet. There are four spare pencils with yarn, three cards with no pencil attached and one incomplete card.

Select inscribed or annotated publications catalogued separately.
