General notes:
Dawn Service 25 April 1936“And in the morning, we will remember them”.A ghostly crowd of predominantly men gather before the Shrine of Remembrance at the Anzac Dawn Service on 25 April 1936..The picture was taken just before the Two Minutes’ silence. An estimated 8,000 were in attendance..The Age reported:The many bright flashes of the press photographers called forth a barrage of remarks, such as passed down the trenches when the shelling began. "Eyes down, they're rangeing on us," "Was that one of ours or one of Jerry's?" "Tin hats on, boys.".Exhibition caption by project volunteer, Fiona Collyer.Published: The Age 27 April 1936.Featured in "Newsworthy : Melbourne in photographs 1933-1936", an exhibition held at East Melbourne Library from October to December 2023..THE IMMORTAL DAWN (1936, April 27).
