This is a set of 24 photographs taken on a CO’s Parade held at the Army Survey Regiment, Fortuna, Bendigo on the 1st of October 1990. Wearing of non-prescription sunglasses by most personnel on the parade was normally not permitted. On this occasion they wore sunglasses as a prank halfway through the parade, given MAJ Burns at this time began wearing sunlight-sensitive photochromic glasses and was the inspecting officer, rather than the CO LTCOL Rene van den Tol. Photos of the other three Squadrons, the Officers, and Warrant Officers/Sergeants from this set of negatives are catalogued in item 6440.11P. Photos of Litho Sqn taken before and after the parade are catalogued in item 6441.15P.This is a set of 24 photographs taken on the occasion of a CO’s Parade at the Army Survey Regiment, Fortuna, Bendigo held on the 1st of October 1990.

Soft cover book profiling a selection of 76 artists local to the Ringwood area. Front cover "Rivergums" by Roger Webber. Back cover Ernest Buckmaster and Rober Webber painting en plein air.(Back cover) "Since the 1880s, Ringwood has quietly nurtured a vibrant artistic spirit. Drawn to its rolling landscapes, bushland reserves, and meandering streams, students from the National Gallery of Victoria once ventured here to capture its beauty on canvas. As the neighbouring suburbs of Warrandyte and Eltham forged reputations as artistic hubs, Ringwood developed a creative character of its own, shaped by art groups, schools and talented individuals. This book celebrates that legacy through the lives of seventy-six artists who have connections with the Ringwood area. More than a history, this is a portrait of a community alive with creativity." Acknowledgements: "Many artists provided material on their artistic career which was appreciated. In some profiles, it may have been possible to write a separate book on the artist's life, therefore condensing it down to a page or two was difficult. Specific credits are given after each chapter but a special thanks to Gareth Syvret and Mattie Young (Maroondah City Council), Liz Seaton, Linda Besser, Kay Scott and Les Baxter. Heathmont History Group provided documentation on their artists and must be thanked, especially Gerry Robinson."

The sculptor of the Shakespeare sculpture was Andor Meszaros of Kew, Melbourne. The unveiling was undertaken by Mayor Arthur W. Nicholson. The statue was presented by L.F. North, general Manager of the Fidelity Trustee Company Limited, representing the late H.P. Stevens as one of the benefactors whose generosity enabled the Statue to be erected. The "portrait statue" shows how people saw Shakespeare as he wanted to be seen; as author-actor bowing to the applause. His position implies modesty, the knowledge of his own worth; majesty. his movement is at once humble and royal. The statue was positioned so people approaching or leaving Ballarat Civic Hall will see the statue full face, and the bowing attitude enables them to continue to study the face even from a few feet distant. The base in in the form of an Elizabethan stage, and is designed so that its sides correspond to the existing angles of its position. The proposal to erect a Statue of Shakespeare in Ballarat stemmed from a movement in 1889, when a committee was formed and a meeting held to inaugurate the proposal. At the initial meeting 258 pounds was contributed to the fund, which was later built on by further donations. In 1935 the fund stood at 945 pounds. In 1939 a bequest of 100 pounds was received from the estate of the late Frank Gale. In October 1952, the Fidelity trustee Company Limited notified of an extract of the will of Harry Person Stevens, in which be bequeathed the sum of 2,000 pounds to the fund for the erection of a Statue of William Shakespeare. In 1957 it was felt the fund had accumulated to an amount sufficient to carry out the intentions of the fund. at that stage the money in hand was approximately 4,000 pounds.A small committee was appointed to further the proposal. In May 1959 a panel of adjudicators met to determine the winner of a limited competition amongst sculptors. The committee comprised Cr G.L. Scott, Cr K.C. Webb, Cr W.E. Roff, J.H. Heinz representing the Fidelity Trustee Company Limited, and R.P. Evans of the Ballarat Fine Art Gallery. Norma Redpath, the nominee of the Victorian Sculptors' Society was present in the capacity of an adviser.
