-
An early souvenir flyer produced in London, which refers to the 25th April 1915 landing on Gallipoli (followed by a "kangaroo-like leap up the cliffs"), which notes "Anzac Day has been celebrated each year since the great exploit on Gallipoli, and bids fair to be celebrated annually for ever by the Australian people. This is the last Anzac Day in London before the return of the present Australian overseas army called the A.I.F." The Australian Imperial Force was the main expeditionary force of the Australian Army during WWI. This flyer contains three articles: "Anzac Day"; "The landing on Gallipoli: how Australian troops first made their name" and "The night attack on Villers-Bretonneux"--Adapted from Antipodean Books, Maps & Prints' catalogue, June 2015.
