Announcing 'From Desert Sand to Jungle Mud'

[Keith Webb]

Yes, I will be at Corowa with the scanner as well as my cameras, so please bring out those photographs. It's amazing what turns up at swap meets, ebay and sunday markets, and a lot of you have already kindly shared images for this project. It's largely a 'labour of love' for Mike and myself. I know Mike has invested thousands of hours over many years carefully researching every detail of this subject, the result of which is wonderfully detailed and informative captions to the images.
An interesting example of what can be found is an image of Ford No9 Gun Tractor 132141 which I originally had photographs of when it was new taken at Wesley Grammar in Melbourne; Euan McDonald's father in law, with his 'blitz radar' turned on found some pictures of the same truck in company with other FGT8 and 9s taken about 10 years later at Puckapunyal!
