A propos de cet article

[Drop title]. Sydney : The Motor Press Ltd., 1925. Octavo (225 mm), colour pictorial wrappers, the upper wrapper design signed in the image lower right 'B. E.

The striking cover of this official programme for the military tattoo to commemorate the visit of the United States Fleet is illustrated in an article in the Sydney Sun, 30 July 1925, where it is noted that the design of the programme was a collaboration between Captain H. W. Grace and the Sydney commercial artist, B. E. Minns. The event itself was organised by Brigadier General Charles Brand, base commandant of the 2nd Military District (New South Wales), and staged at the Royal Agricultural Society's Showgrounds, Moore Park, with all proceeds going to the T.B. Sailors' & Soldiers' Association and the Limbless Soldiers' Association. Included among the evening's entertainments were re-enactments from the Battle of Omdurman and Rorke's Drift (!) and renditions by the massed bands of Advance Australia Fair and The Star Spangled Banner. Rare. Only two examples traced in Australian collections (SLNSW; UoW Archives, Marjory East Collection).…
