Zustand: Very Good. A single leaf (octavo, printed recto only), slightly marked, with a marginal crease to a top corner; two light horizontal creases where folded for posting; in very good condition. The invitation, headed '9th L.H.O.C.A.' (9th Light Horse Old Comrades Association), invites members to give a hearty welcome to the old commanding officer (Colonel William Henry Scott, 1881-1960), who 'will be in Adelaide for a few days this month on a visit to his son'. The date for the event is not given, but we suggest some time in the 1920s, as Scott 'rose to brigadier in 1929' ('Australian Dictionary of Biography'). Darley writes (presumably as president of the association) that 'it will be quite informal, come along in your working clothes or anyhow you like, and you need not get your hair cut for the occasion. If you clean your boots, be sure to use NUGGET. Refreshments, liquid only, will be provided'. The ADB provides the answer to the unasked question: 'Scott contributed items to the "Bulletin" (under the pseudonym of "Nugget", an ironic nickname considering his great height)'.
