GNOWANGERUP JUBILEE SHOW 1961

In 1961 Gnowangerup celebrated the 50th birthday of the local Agricultural Show. A convoy of floats paraded up Yougenup Road to the showgrounds lead by a Pipe Band.

Shown here are very rare images taken by Gordon Freegard who grabbed his 8mm movie carmera and filmed the event. Sadly the film is showing its age and these rare images have been captured from his film.
