Posters in the Hut - History on our walls - part 1

Posters in the Hut, Part 2 - More History on our walls

In 2015 we renovated the Hut, first removing the posters from the wall after photographing them. Some posters were easily removed & were strong enough to keep, others were damaged & were not able to be preserved. The walls were covered with posters, & more were found behind furniture. Most were put on with good old-fashioned flour paste.

Photos 1 & 2, taken in 2014 when we started sub-letting the Hut show how it was before the renovation. Photos from Duke's Place, February, April, October & November 2014 give other views of the posters & Concert Party events give more detail. (all photos Sandra Nixon) 

Ray Gurney, a conservator assisted with the removal, but the majority of the posters were removed & stored by Ralph Pride.
