Melbourne Legacy
Photograph - Photo, Anzac Day 1936, 1936
The photo shows Legatees Pat Hanna (left) and Frank Doolan (right) with a wreath at a war memorial on Anzac Day in 1936. The wreath was an interesting design with a torch to resemble the Legacy logo. From the pencil note on the reverse it was thought it might be the cenotaph in Whitehall, London. Pat Hanna lived in London for a number of years. It might also be the cenotaph that was in Spring St, near Parliament house, until the Shrine of Remembrance was dedicated in 1937. (see photo at 01371). The two were very similar in design as the Victorian one was a half size replica of the London one. Pat Hanna (born George Patrick Hanna; 18 March 1888 in Whitianga, New Zealand) was a New Zealand-born film producer ; he was a soldier of the First World War who entertained postwar audiences with the stage show 'Diggers', that was adapted to a film of the same title in 1931.An early Anzac day ceremony with a Legacy laying a wreath. Frank Doolan and Pat Hanna were founding members of Legacy. Frank Doolan was one of the archive committee that attempted to record the history of Legacy.Black and white photo of two Legatees laying a wreath.Hand-written on reverse: 'Pat Hanna and self with Legacy wreath / Anzac Day 1936' in navy ink. 'Legatee Frank Doolan' written in pencil near the word 'self'. 'London ?' written in pencil. Stamped 'W2259' in black ink.anzac day, wreath laying ceremony, founding legatee, hanna, frank doolan -
