"Good Evening and Welcome to Television"
Today is the 60th anniversary of when television was first broadcast in Sydney on 16 September 1956 by TCN Channel 9. Prior to this new technology, one had go to the local cinemas to see something on the screen .
The weekly newsreel provided patrons to weekly content of news, sport and current affairs that were shown at the local cinema. The onset of television resulted in the decline of the newsreel format as it could not keep up with bringing up-to-date news. It also resulted in the decline of the local cinema.
Below is a tribute diorama to the anniversary. A newsreel film unit filming reviews of the new FE Holden Sedan in 1956.
The Holden FJ van is a Road Ragers diecast with custom designed and made decals. The film crew is a Preiser set.
While the anniversary does not directly relate to my layout except that this event occurred in the 1950s it does allow me to display my other fetish. My HO scale model car collection. Here is a view of some of my collection as you can see my favourites are 1950s American cars.
