industrial Gazettes Looking for a Home


Who's interested in an almost complete set of the NSW Industrial Gazettes from 1917 to 1989?

D'ya want to look roolly, trooly smart?

D'ya like the look of old, nicely-bound, musty books on bookshelves?

D'ya want to understand a little bit about what Jeff Shaw will be on about when he returns to the NSW industrial bar?

Well here's your opportunity.

The National Office of the LHMU are getting rid of one set of the NSW Industrial Gazettes,

We would like to place them in a nice home, so we are promoting this early 20th century literature through the 21st century world of the website and e-mail.

So if you want this set contact the LHMU librarian, Lyndall Gale, at: [email protected] or ring her on 02 9281 9511

PS Does anyone know what interesting industrial law cases were held in 1923,1925,1927,1932-1940? "Cause these are the only volumes missing ( nicked?) from this luverly 1917-1989 set.
