Photographs of a trip to Mount Wudinna
'An album (a stock Kodak line, 150 x 195 mm) containing seventeen original postcard-format gelatin silver photographs loosely mounted in the specially-designed leaves; both the album and contents are in fine condition. The album has a presentation inscription to 'Miss Mabel Barns, / In remembrance of Mt Wudinna trip / July 1911. / From Press Representatives / P.P. Kenny / Thomas F. Rice', and there are captions to all images in ink on the album leaves. A lengthy article in the Adelaide Chronicle, Saturday 29 July 1911, under the heading "Western Wheat Province. Colton Farmers on Tour' gives a full account of the trip, with details supplied presumably by Messrs Kenny and Rice. Nine members of the Colton branch of the Agricultural Bureau held their July meeting at Mount Wudinna, about 100 kilometres north-east of Colton, by invitation of W.A. Barns of 'Barnsdale', Colton, and Mount Wudinna. Mr Barns "provided a drag for the trip, and a team of six first-class horses" and off they went. Mount Wudinna is approximately 250 km west of Port Augusta; one can imagine the Mount Wudinna-Colton route is still not a well-travelled path. The photographs show the full party setting off, having an alfresco lunch, visiting the tanks at Baird's Lakes, leaving Mount Wudinna, and among numerous sheep at Kappacoola Plains. There are several images of the 'Railway Clearing' through the mallee scrub, presumably for the Trans-Australian Railway. Perhaps most interesting of all are the scenes of hard life on the land, evidenced by the scrub-cutter's hut, the old homestead at Mount Wudinna, and the Survey Camp at Mount Damper. The Kenny and Barns families were among the earliest pioneers in the region.' [From vendors catalogue.]
