"The Argus" picnic accounts, invitations, &c. for the years 1887-1888, 1887-1888

Abstract Or Scope

The collection comprises two volumes which record company events organised by The Argus newspaper during 1887 and 1888. The volumes are handwritten, the records probably compiled by an accounts clerk (presumably 'J. Brash') working for William Spowers. William George Spowers (1856-1932) was the proprietor of Melbourne newspaper The Argus during the years that these records were kept. The entries record the names of all invited guests, including members of the Spowers family, staff and their families, journalists from other newspapers, politicians, and prominent citizens. Also detailed are the arrangements for catering and musicians (Herr Plock and his band from Glen's, Collins Street), railway tickets and reservations for outings, children's entertainment (Weston's Punch Judy, South Melbourne), and costs for the printing of programmes. The Argus was an Australian daily morning newspaper in Melbourne from 2 June 1846 to 19 January 1957, and was considered to be the general Australian newspaper of record for this period.

Theatre programs and ephemera regarding Anna Pavlova's Australian tours, 1926-1929

Abstract Or Scope

The list is based on the imperfect holdings held in the collection and information found here is therefore incomplete. The list will be updated as the Library's gaps for this artist are filled.The holdings consist primarily of Magazine programs with a few separately published "Souvenir programs". In some instances information is gleaned from advertisements in them. This does not prove that the repertoire was performed as program changes did occur however it gives an idea of what was planned. All other sources are clearly indicated, eg, flyers. Printed materials in the PROMPT collection include programs and printed ephemera such as brochures, leaflets, tickets, etc. Theatre programs are taken as the prime documentary evidence of a performance. The list is based on imperfect holdings, and is updated as gaps in the Library's holdings are filled. Unless otherwise stated, all entries are based on published programs in the PROMPT collection.
