Looking for Aust. gold rush prints

Copper · Apr 6, 2013

Hoping someone knows of a place or site I can check out to buy some prints of the 1850s era gold rush in NSW or VIC. I'm hoping to have a few pics of people working in the fields framed. I've found a fair few but most are US (California & Alaskan) gold rush eras.

Thanks anyhow

Hay Copper,
Are you related to Agman, you look like brothers

Have a look at the NLA trove site, it's got some really good historical photos .

Lol, I saw Agmans avatar today, I thought I was really clever choosing gold member. Ill check out trove, thanks for the tip....hopefully something there will be high res enough to get a good print out of it.

Thanks again Mick,
Copper

Hi Copper,

Do an image search on GOOGLE for "S.T. Gill (1818-1880)"
Recording daily goldfields life was what he remembered for and i think that you will find something that you like amongst his drawings.
