Historical information

Wendy LOWENSTEIN donated these in 1998 to the Society after storing them since the early 1980s. They were typed by a hired transcriber, for excepting and editing to into 'Under the Hook - Melbourne Waterside Workers Remember 1900-1980'. Subsequently the Australian National Library requested these transcripts, and it is (in 2000) Wendy's intention to make them copies. They have purchased the tapes from which these were transcribed; originally Wendy offered to donate the tapes to this Society.
