Newcastle Sun Photos

This collection of glass plate negatives form part of the archives of the Newcastle Sun which was published by Sun Newspapers Ltd between the years 1918-1980.

The collection was transferred from the basement of the old Newcastle Sun building, to the custody of the Archives of the University of Newcastle in January 1977 for ongoing preservation and research. These glass negatives date from the early period of the Newcastle Sun, during the 1920s to the 1930s, documenting the business as well as life in Newcastle (Australia) during the roaring 20s to the Great Depression.

The photos in this collection are in the public domain and are free to use. As a courtesy, please acknowledge the image source, "Image from the Newcastle Sun Collection and held by the University of Newcastle Library's Special Collections".

Please contact us if you are the subject of an image, or know the subject of an image and have cultural or other reservations about the image being displayed on this website and would like to discuss this with us.

These photographs, like many of the thousands of photos on our site, were scanned by a volunteer. When we have sufficient funds in the Vera Deacon Regional History Fund, we are able to give these wonderful people some paid employment. If you would care to make a tax-deductible donation to this fund, please see http://libguides.newcastle.edu.au/benefactors/new for more information and a link to the donation form.
