1890réf. 128029Adelaide: Fruhling Studio 62 Rundle Street 1890. Very Good. Adelaide Fruhling Studio 62 Rundle Street mid- to late-1890s. A vintage gelatin silver photograph 134 × 94 mm mounted on the original cabinet card 165 × 110 mm with the photographer's details blindstamped in the bottom margin. Both the photograph and mount are in excellent condition. Contemporary business directories indicate that Fruhling Studio commenced operating from 62 Rundle Street in 1895 'Portrait and Enlarging Co. Fruhling & Co.'; this 'continued until 1913 when the address was changed to 62A Rundle Street. From 1918 to 1927 the address was given as 103A Rundle Street. Although listed as Fruhling & Co. in directories the name Fruhling Studios sic was usually printed on their photographs' Photohistory SA website. The particulars of the uniform elude us but the following information about the parlous state of military affairs in colonial SA at the time this photograph was taken provides some context. These comments come from an unpublished manuscript by Geoffrey H. Manning 'The Russians are Coming - The Defence of Colonial South Australia' now in the State Library of SA. 'By May of 1896 it was finally recognised that the basis upon which the military forces of the Australian colonies were organised was unsatisfactory and it was to cure defects and place matters on a more effective footing that a Consolidating and Amending Act had been passed in the previous session. In the dying days of Parliament its progress through all stages was pushed on and the headlong speed with which it was carried through the two chambers necessarily militated against the critical examination of its many clauses.The fact that the majority of the sections were merely repetitions of those in existing Acts was obviously no justification for dealing with the Bill in such a spasmodic manner. After the Act was assented to more than four months were allowed to pass without anything being done to bring the members of the old force together with a view to acquainting them with the conditions under which they were to be asked to enroll and this policy of procrastination was observed to the last. Enrolment commenced in August but in the face of the many other allurements held out to the youth of South Australia in the form of cricket football baseball lacrosse and - most attractive of all - cycling it was not to be wondered that the process of recruiting was painfully slow; by mid-February 1897 there had been 611 enrollments. With this change came the end of the colourful uniforms that marked the early military history of the colony. The scarlet tunics white-striped blue trousers and white helmets that had followed the grey uniform of the 1880s - the "Destitutes" they called the men in these uniforms - were replaced by khaki with maroon facings and a felt hat. The first parade of the new military forces took place on 3 October 1896 when "The South Australian Army" presented a rather nondescript appearance owing to the fact of so many recruits being in the ranks and yet unprovided with uniforms and also a proportion of men in the old force whose uniforms were worn out and too shabby for wear. The public manifested little interest in the proceedings - it was race-day - and moreover the band was not expressively in evidence. A few people probably the mothers and fathers the sisters and the aunts of the new recruits attended'. Fruhling Studio, 62 Rundle Street unknown

réf. 131324Fine. One page quarto folded once across the middle; in fine condition. The letter accompanied an inscribed and signed copy of Thiele's book 'The Little Desert' Rigby 1975. It is dated 3 April 1997 and was sent from King Scrub via Dayboro in Queensland where the Thieles lived after leaving Adelaide. He is responding to a letter from his old Adelaide friend Alan Brissenden 1932-2020 academic noted scholar of Shakespeare writer and critic who had recently visited the Little Desert in Victoria's Wimmera district and in the first paragraph he writes about his love for the area. He encloses a photocopy of a recent newspaper article still present on the practice of modern plagiarism which leads him to a critical discussion of the actions of Helen Demidenko / Darville referencing her recent fortnightly columns in the 'Courier Mail' 'Her first piece was unbelievably awful. A few days later it was revealed that - yet again - she had pinched much of it verbatim from an American "professor" on the Internet'. Apparently plagiarism 'is actually taught as a technique at some universities . Incredible! We obviously live in "the new morality"'. He finishes on a positive note still busy with publishers 'although I think it is about time I hung up my keyboard and retired to a hammock under the palm trees. Now I'll let you get on with your own work so that you can finish a book on Shakespeare with a bit of post-modern intertextualisation'. unknown
réf. 105467Very Good. Image size approximately 325 × 263 mm on the original ruled mount visible surface 430 × 365 mm framed and glazed. The photograph is beginning to lift slightly at two corners; mount slightly soiled at one corner; frame a little scuffed and marked; overall in excellent condition. On the reverse is the paper label of 'S. Solomon Photographer 51 Rundle Street Adelaide'. The address the original of which was illustrated and illuminated by W.G.P. Joyner gives an indication of the scale and importance of Dunn's enterprises: '. by your perseverance energy and strict integrity you have overcome all obstacles and today you have the satisfaction of leaving to your successors the largest milling and wheat business in the Southern Hemisphere'. An article in the 'South Australian Chronicle' for 8 June 1889 describes the circumstances of the presentation of the address and also describes the original in detail. 'The address is the work of Mr. Joyner and is one of his most artistic productions . The words and the signatures which number 105 being those of most of the leading employés are situated in the centre while all around are well executed paintings of a number of the mills belonging to the firm taken from photographs. In the left-hand corner there is a painting of the site of the original mill at Hay Valley . On the top are Mr. Dunn's residence at Mount Barker 'The Laurels' and the Dunn Memorial Church which that gentleman presented to the residents of Mount Barker while the right hand corner is occupied by a view of the firm's stores and offices in Freeman-street Adelaide now Gawler Place. On the left side of the address there are views of the mills at Wilmington the old mill at Port Adelaide and at Mount Barker and two representations of the new Roller Eclipse mill at Port Adelaide. On the other side the Nairne mill takes precedence while underneath it is the gem of the collection the works at Port Pirie including some of the shipping of the port with the railway in front. The Port Augusta and Bridgewater mills are represented and an excellent portrait of Mr. Dunn is also included in the set.' A number of the source photographs are to be found in a Dunn family photograph album now held by the State Library of South Australia PRG 1485/3. Dunn's entry in the 'Australian Dictionary of Biography' records that 'he retired in 1889 and died at Mount Barker on 13 October 1894. The firm's eleven mills five with the most modern machinery then represented an investment of £150000. They annually had an export trade of some 20000 tons of flour to Britain Western Australia New South Wales and South Africa some 400 employees and a payment to farmers of £500000'. unknown
