Series 10. Pictorial material

Subseries 10A. Photographs

This subseries comprises three photograph albums and many loose photographs ranging in date from 1916 to 1963. The photographs of Bearup also span this period. In addition, there are a few photographs of him with members of his family. Two of the albums are collections of photographs taken from 1916 to 1920 when Bearup was a sea-going wireless operator and they show Bearup himself, his shipboard companions, and the places he visited. The third album contains pictures of Bearup's retirement party in 1962 and show him with many of his BBC friends. Loose photographs have been grouped under broad chronological headings but no attempt has been made to sort within these groups. Photographs taken in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s show, for example, 3LO's first broadcast and early radio equipment. Most of the photographs, however, were taken in the 1950s and early 1960s and their subjects include ABC and BBC personnel, and the ABC's London office and staff. Nearly all the photographs are black-and-white and most are labelled.
