Morning all,
It has been a constant source of irritation to me that no Queensland newspapers post 1954 have been digitised on Trove - especially the courier mail. Much light could be shed on this question (when did Cox first produce a ride on) and many others very quickly if they were. I realise permission is required before the nla can digitise past 1954 but the complete non existence of anything past that year from Queensland has me suspecting there is something in Queensland law preventing it. Sigh.
It'll happen one day.
Also, off topic, what was the idea behind the TV sign? I know TV retailers would allow folks to watch in store and had sets in the window so people could come and watch at night. This being just marketing - feeding the addiction thus building sales. Guessing the idea here was similar. Get people in the door to watch TV and maybe build sales on the back of it?
Cheers,
