Ephemera - Ticket, Illustrated Lecture by Hon W. L. Allardyce on the Falkland Islands
... Islands ...Public lectures were a common activity in Bacchus Marsh in the early 1900s. These were usually held in the Mechanics Institute Hall in Main Street, or in the Australian Natives Association (ANA) Hall also in Main Street Bacchus Marsh. This ticket is a typical example of the elaborate design used for invitations at this time. This lecture was promoted as an 'illustrated lecture'. In this instance it was according to contemporary newspaper reporting a lecture which included a series of 'lantern views'. These were pictures—paintings, prints, or photographs—on transparent plates (usually made of glass), and were then projected for viewing through an image projector commonly called a 'magic lantern'. Printed ticket on card. Rectangular shape.public lectures, bacchus marsh mechanics institute, mechanics institutes, ephemera bacchus marsh -
