Phillip Island and District Historical Society Inc.
Photograph, 1950 approx
Donated by J W Gliddon with his comments on back of photograph. Taken when motorbike and car racing were run around the roads on Phillip Island. Racing first came to Phillip Island in 1927 in the form of a 200 mile road race for motorcycles on a circuit encompassing Cowes and Rhyll. In the next year, a shorter rectangular course, again on public roads, was used for the running of what became the first Australian Grand Prix. Eight successive Australian Grand Prix were run on this course before the race was moved elsewhere. Finally in 1935, racing was discontinued and Phillip Island lapsed into the tranquility and peacefulness of its quiet country and beach atmosphere.Black & White photograph of motorcycle riders on bike and sidecar. Crowd watching at the side of the road. See Historical Information for more detail re motorcycle racing on Phillip Island.On back: "This picture could become historically interesting as machines and methods change. It was taken about the year 1950. Perhaps earlier." motor cycle racing -

Document - Quotation, proposed monument to Allan WHITTAKER, Matcham Skipper, c. 1986
From the collection of Perce White for 1980s committee to memorialise Allan WHITTAKER (referred to as James WHITTAKER). Sculptor Matcham SKIPPER later included his design, described as a nude woman, falling, in a list of works on his website. This caused Monuments Australia to list it on their website as an existing statue, although it never happened. After several searches and resultant complaints, the entry was removed in September 2010.Quotation for $70.000 from sculptor Matcham SKIPPER of Monsalvat, re proposed memorial to Allan WHITTAKER (referred to as James WHITTAKER), mid-1980s (undated) A4, cream colourpiers and wharves - waterside workers, arts and entertainment - visual arts, memorials, allan whittaker, matcham skipper, sculpture, perce mcguire white, perce white
