Historical background
After the First World War, it took a long time for construction of the Memorial building in Canberra to begin and many more years before it was finally completed. Initially there were delays in arousing public and government enthusiasm. Then the Depression intervened. In the meantime large long-running exhibitions were held in Melbourne and Sydney. The 'Australian War Museum' opened on ANZAC Day 1922 in the Exhibition Building, Melbourne. This exhibition of war relics was enthusiastically received by press and public and attracted large crowds. The exhibition closed in 1925 and was moved to Sydney, where it remained until 1935. Later, in Melbourne, another exhibition of war relics, photographs, paintings and models opened in October 1927, closing in April 1928. The Memorial building in Canberra finally opened in 1941.
As well as containing permanent exhibits of Australian stories in war, the Memorial has a program of travelling and temporary special exhibitions. It also hosts events, such as Anzac Day and Remembrance Day services, anniversary commemorations, official visits from Australian and foreign dignitaries and Open Days. The Memorial is a centre for commemoration, as well as military history research and education.
This collection contains ephemeral items created by or about the Memorial as part of the work of presenting Australian military history to the community through exhibitions, military publications, documentaries and events.
