Report itemTHE AUSTRALIAN WOMEN'S WEEKLY FAMOUS PICTURES FROM THE WEEKLY BOOK! ********* GOLDEN PRESS **** INTRODUCTION BY ITA BUTTROSE *** FIRST PUBLISHED 1980 **** TO ASSEMBLE THIS BOOK THE EDITORS OF GOLDEN PRESS WENT THROUGH ALL THE BOUND VOLUMES OF THE MAGAZINE FROM 1933 TO THIS YEAR (1980). THE AIM FROM THE OUTSET WAS THAT THIS BOOK SHOULD NOT BE A PONDEROUS HISTORY OF OUR TIMES.... THAT MEMORABLE EVENTS AND IMPORTANT PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE A PLACE BUT ONLY IF THEIR PICTURES WERE THE BEST... THE RESULT IS A FACINATING PICTORIAL PORTFOLIO OF OUR CONTEMPORARY HISTORY. THIS IS PARTICULARLY SO IN THE WAR SECTION WITH THE REPRODUCTION OF SOME WEEKLY COVERS DURING THE 1939-45 YEARS. COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHY WAS IN ITS INFANCY THEN, BUT THE ILLUSTRATIONS BY THE WEEKLY'S ARTISTS STILL CREATED THE EMOTIONAL RESPONSE OF A GREAT PHOTOGRAPH... THIS BOOK IS A SUPERB, COLLECTION OF IMAGES, ONE OF WHICH YOU WILL TREASURE FOR MANY YEARS TO COME.. ***** CONTENTS INTRODUCTION BY ITA BUTTROSE NEWS ACTION EVENTS TO REMEMBER JUST PETS THE ENTERTAINERS THE ATHLETES THE WEEKLY AT WAR ***** CONTENTS PICS & TEXT ON FIRE ON ANZAC DAY BRISBANE FLOODS GRANVILLE BRIDGE ABBOTSFORD LANDSLIDE VISIT OF POPE PAUL FAREWELL TO A PRESIDENT CHARLES AND ANNE THE QUEEN MOTHER SHANE GOULD DAWN FRASER & MANY MANY MORE! ***** THIS IS A FANTASTIC BOOK & A MUST FOR THE COLLECTION VERY HARD TO FIND!
