- Today's News is tomorrow's history and the television newsrooms are prolific documenters of what takes place each day, recording events and conveying them to the public.
The news camera folk are capturing not only events of the period, but also creating time-capsule elements with each story reported. That's if their record is kept by News Departments who value the historic significance of their material.
This video is a compilation of news bulletin video taken in the early 1970's by cameramen at TVW Channel Seven in Perth.
The News Editor at the time was the legendary Darcy Farrell, who set up the first television newsroom in Western Australia.
TVW News cameramen during this era included Peter Goodall, Michael Goodall, Lu Belci, Bryan Dunne, Tom Hall, Don Hanran-Smith, Gordon McColl, Alex McPhee, Bill Meacham, Brad Pearce, Steve Thompson, Stan Jeffery and Matt Williams.
All footage shown here was shot on 16mm black and white film, as it was the age before electronic news gathering (ENG).
This video contains vision of happenings occurring in Perth during the early 1970's.
1971 Boan's Christmas Parade. I'm driving the Channel 7 vintage car for Sandy & Percy Penguin. Never imagined I'd ever see that footage, what a hoot. Great times.
I have lived in Perth all my life I was about 7 at the time .. what memories thank you for posting ...
Saw a HQ Holden. So this would be 1971. No HQ's in 1970!
HG
Great footage of construction of the Perth Concert Hall.
Thank you for posting this. Takes me back to my childhood. I had forgotten what my city looked like then.
Great footage of my home city, thanks for uploading. Interesting to see the Concert Hall under construction. Perth was really booming then, as the growing skyline shows.
Back in the days when we used to have rain!
2021 ! I think it's coming back!🇳🇿🇬🇧🙊🙈🙉🙋🙋😁
Most of Australia was flooded this year. El nino never happened.. another climate crazy 🤦♂️
The concert hall was opened in January 1973 so based on the stage of construction there I’m guessing this is actually a 1972 video
Fantastic footage, the only question I have is, why is there no footage of the Apollo 11 Astronauts visit to Perth? They arrived in Perth on the 31st of October 1969 - Try finding footage of that event, its almost impossible!!!
At 0.48 there is footage of the rear of a Holden Premier, the first model with the new sloped rear side panels. I remember as a young boy my father proudly announcing he was the first bloke in Perth to take delivery of the new model, and I am fairly sure that car in the image is his. About spring 1971 I think?
Jonathan Mathys would have been hundreds and hundreds of HQ's around then
Perth public servants got advance distribution of Holdens back then. My dad was the head of public health and we always had top-of-the-line Holdens (Caprice or Statesman, maybe) months before anyone else.
Some of the traffic scenes are 1973. The newest cars I see are a VJ Valiant Charger and an amber blinker update HQ Holden
this is the same as the other news archive that was uploaded 3 days before this
The music makes Perth seem so dramatic lol.
Annoying isn't it? Wtf 😂
When perth was a nicer place. Give me a time machine.
Is that Perth train station at 4:55?
Yh
I've lived in Perth for over 20 years now and I would like to say what a great city it has turned into.
Hmm I digress. You obviously live in a good suburb? Crime is really bad now. I'll take it as it was then
Wow someone actually not complaining about how their city has turned to crap and how things used to be so much better.
@@CovidConQuitTheCensorship I agree
@@pavementpounder7502 that's because they don't know how good it was, duh 😂
Perth Concert Hall. Better acoustics in a Coke can!
Actually, arguably the best acoustics in Australia and the Southern Hemisphere!
We have home movies of us as little girls all dressed up in pretty dresses going on the train at the zoo. My Mother and Grandmother would be beautifully dressed with hats and heels, and now I live in shorts and thongs. Go figure 😁
