Over the past year or so the NLA has digitised two significant collection of pamphlets, many with maps included that rarely find their way to the online environment.

These are items in the Ferguson and Petherick pamphlet runs, mostly nineteenth and early twentieth century Australiana.

The two links below are to a compilation from each collection of pamphlets with maps -

·         JAF pamphlets

·         Petherick pamphlets

A great collection of emigrant’ guides, colonial handbooks, programmes and almanacs, railway reports, steam voyage routes, mining, linguistic field notes, Pacific islands, political etc etc -
