Key Acquisitions and Disposals

Acquisitions

Art

1) John Brack, 20 watercolours and sketches, 1942–46. One of Australia's most celebrated artists, Brack produced these works depicting internment camps in Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland while serving in the AIF. This donation, by the artist's widow, Helen Brack, is a major addition to the Memorial's collection of modern art.

2) Horace Moore-Jones, The landing at Anzac April 1915, c. 1915 (watercolour on paper). One of the earliest known depictions of the landing on Gallipoli that was, furthermore, painted by an artist who was also a participant. This work was acquired with the support of the Ministry for the Arts through the National Cultural Heritage Account.

3) Michael Cook, Majority rule (Memorial), 2014 (inkjet print on paper). A major work by a contemporary Indigenous artist that explores the legacy and commemoration of Indigenous military service.

4) William Edwin Pidgeon, 600 items including more than 400 works of art. This donation from the estate of the artist, a war correspondent from the Second World War and three-time Archibald Prize winner, includes paintings, watercolours, illustrated letters, scrapbooks, and ephemera. With this donation the Memorial now holds the most comprehensive collection of Pidgeon's work in Australia.

5) Hans Sachs poster collection. A rare collection of 13 French, German, Italian, Hungarian, Russian, and Polish First World War propaganda posters purchased from the Hans Sachs Collection auction in New York. Sachs was one of the foremost poster collectors of the early twentieth century. His entire collection was confiscated by the Nazis during the Second World War. In 2012 it was finally repatriated to his grandson in America by the German government and was subsequently offered at auction. This collection of extremely rare posters significantly enhances the Memorial's international poster collection.

Military Heraldry and Technology

1) The Memorial acquired the Victoria Cross and medal group of Warrant Officer Class 2 Keith Payne VC OAM. The group, comprising 24 medals, will be installed in the Vietnam War section of the Hall of Valour.

2) The Memorial also acquired the Victory Medal of Corporal Alexander Burton VC and the Military Medal and campaign medals of Sergeant Stan McDougall VC. The Victoria Crosses belonging to these men, both awarded during the First World War, were already on display in the Hall of Valour.

3) The Australian Defence Force donated two battle-damaged Bushmaster Protected Mobility Vehicles. Both vehicles were hit by improvised explosive devices in Uruzgan province, Afghanistan.

4) A rare Victorian Permanent Infantry Officer's uniform (c. 1890) was purchased. It comprises a scarlet tunic, mess jacket, waistcoat, sidecap, waist belt and buckle, cross belt, and pouch.

5) Two heritage items from the Tarin Kot base in Afghanistan were delivered to the Memorial by the Prime Minister the Honourable Tony Abbott MP on 30 October 2013. They were the Task Force symbol of a kangaroo and boomerang, previously mounted on the wall of "Poppy's" Recreation Area, and an improvised bell which hung at the chapel.

Photographs, Film and Sound

1) A donation of approximately 3,000 images in two albums from the No. 458 Squadron RAAF Association. The association started gathering photographs and other memorabilia in the late 1940s, and each album weighs 12 kilograms. This comprehensive collection is a unique and captivating record.

2) A collection of 11 images relating to Corporal Gerry Carroll. Corporal Carroll was deployed to Afghanistan from 2 April 2009 to 6 March 2010, and held the rank of Craftsman (CFN) Metalsmith in the Mentoring and Reconstruction Task Force Workshop. The images display Carroll's entrenching tool for the removal of IED's. Before this donation the National Collection did not hold anything of this genre. Included are images of him welding a memorial for Australian soldiers who died during his deployment; this memorial will be donated to the Memorial.

3) A collection of 1,500 photographs taken by renowned photo-journalist Stephen Dupont in Afghanistan. The Memorial commissioned Dupont to document changes to the landscape as a result of war and the daily activities of Australian Defence Force personnel in Afghanistan in 2012.

Diary covers December 1917 to March 1918.

2) Collection of more than 60 letters written by painter, cartoonist, illustrator, and newspaper critic William Edwin Pidgeon to his wife while working as a war correspondent and artist with Consolidated Press in New Guinea, Borneo, and Morotai in 1943–45. Also includes his War Correspondent's Licence and Identification Card.

3) Letter dated 28 September 1969 written by Brigadier Stuart Paul "Bill" Weir, Commander 1st Australian Task Force South Vietnam, to Australian entertainer Lorrae Desmond MBE in appreciation for the concert she and her team put on for the troops at Luscombe Bowl on 19 September 1969.

Disposals

Art

These accession records were given to five entirely clothed and equipped mannequins in the 1940s, representing the Royal Flying Corps, Royal Air Force and Australian Flying Corps in the First World War. When the display was dismantled in the early 1980s the individual items on the figures were retained each with their unique accession number. The mannequins were not kept and thus the numbers have been deleted.

Research Centre

1) Several uncatalogued duplicate maps from the series OW85/6 showing the boundaries between different zones of responsibility for American and British Empire forces in the eastern hemisphere during the Second World War – transferred to the Sea Power Centre.

2) A "salary payment slip" (or paybook) that belonged to Superior Private Kobayashi Ichir of the Imperial Japanese Army was returned to his family. The document was captured at Hansa Bay on the north coast of New Guinea on 10 July 1944 (AWM82, item 1/2/500213).
