The Library's summer opening hours are in place from Monday 23 December 2024 until Wednesday 1 January 2025 (inclusive). Before planning your visit, check our opening hours and temporary changes to collection access.
The papers consist of photographs and illustrations for a book by Gollan The tradition of Australian cooking which was published by the Australian National University in 1978. The book describes food and cooking methods, the kitchens and gadgets, and the slowly changing culinary traditions of Australians from the early Aborigines and the first days of European settlement to the present. The photographs have been used by the designer in the design and layout of the publication. Many of the images have a caption attached to the back of the photograph and an overlay with the dimensions of the photograph as it appeared in the publication.
