Description: Album of publicity photographs, chiefly taken by unidentified photographers in the 1930s. Many are photographs of posters, artwork and advertisements, all emphasising the beauty of New Zealand, and how easy it is to travel through the country by rail, and by the New Zealand Railways bus and ferry services. Some of the artwork was done by Stanley Davis (one photograph shows the funeral of S. Davis, with the hearse parked outside the funeral parlour in Kent Terrace, Wellington); and by Marmaduke Matthews. (On page 53 there is a photograph of a black and white sketch of Victoria University College, by Marmaduke Matthews). There is a photograph also of the painting of Sir Ernest Rutherford, by Oswald Birley. Photographs of places include a sequence showing the Dominion Museum and Art Gallery in Wellington, with an exterior view with the Carillon, and interior views of museum exhibits, art gallery spaces (including one room containing the Murray Fuller Exhibition of Contemporary British Art), and the tea-rooms. Several views show the exterior and interior of the Alexander Turnbull Library, with Clyde Taylor the librarian in two scenes seated at his desk, and one of a reader in the reading room. Another sequence shows horses, sheep and bulls being readied for transportation by ferry. Two group portraits are associated with the Empire Games, one entitled `Empire athletes', and the other showing cyclist Roy Taylor with a group. Other group portraits are not identified, though one is entitled `Staff Xmas party 1937'. Quantity: 1 album(s) Album(s). Physical Description: Album with canvas cover, green spine, entitled `Miscellaneous 6'; 41 x 58 cm
