    In addition to the two letters illustrated online (which are accompanied by their original envelopes), the lot includes: An incoming letter (and envelope) dated 1920, addressed to Shaw (Prisoner No. 317), from a Mr H. Prince. A January 1930 letter from Shaw, writing from Wallaroy Road, Woollahra. A printed prisoner’s letter (and original envelope) from Shaw to his mother, dated January 1925, from Goulburn jail. An October 1918 printed prisoner’s letter from Joseph Galvin (Prisoner No. 19), State Penitentiary, to a Mr Everingham (who appears to be his lawyer)… “P.S. Sir, it is a terrible thing to be in here innocent. I don’t mind if I am guilty but they do a lot of things to a broken man, so give me your true advice.”
