Moments in Time
Postcards provide a much richer source of imagery than most of us ever imagined. An extraordinary range has been printed in Australia, particularly in the golden period between 1900 and the First World War. After an introduction to set the scene, Moments in Time covers postcards of just about everything - war and peace, disasters and celebrations, holidays and home life, sports and theatre, rural and city living, love for 'The Dear Old Country' and pride in Australia - to name a few. Postcards were a major form of communication for a century. Although few people send them now, old postcards have an immediacy about them that is striking. They become projectiles for the past, particularly when augmented by a message that gives a glimpse of another life, another time.
