Percy Haslam WWII Collection

Information

These photos were mostly taken during World War II (1939-1945) by Percy Haslam (1913-1987). They are from the Percy Haslam Collection held by Special Collections at the University of Newcastle Library, NSW, Australia.

The photos in this collection are in the public domain and are free to use. As a courtesy, please acknowledge the image source, "Image created by Percy Haslam 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.
