ARCHIVES

Archivists Report

The members support for ~he Society's archives collection continues to grow and this is most pleasing. Some
interesting photos and articles have been made available to us. The original and copied photos held in our
archive collection proved to be a most popular exhibit at our 25 September meeting. The Society is most
indebted to Peter O'Reilly for taking the time to copy the large number of photos on a recent trip to Sydney.

The acquisition of a collection of photos depicting the former G.U. State Theatre (Flinders St) was another
recent highlight for the Society. This album will be again available to members at the October meeting.

Now that we have photos of many city and suburban theatres it is Ol.lr intention to compliment them with
various printed materials such as articles, press clippings, advertisements and histories for them.

Our next issue of CinemaRecord Will have a list of theatres that are somewhat of a mystery to us i.e we do not
have appropriate internal or external photos. This list will be updated from time to time and the assistance of
our members in providing dates would be apprecrated.

Personal Projects

As space permits a list of member's theatre projects will be printed. Other readers may be able to assist those
members by providing photos and other information.
