A TIME TO REMEMBER A Visual History of Australia

Reel DVD / Release date 15 January 2008

One of the best ways of actually getting a real hand on modern history is by having a look at the old newsreels that were a weekly highlight of most peoples cinema viewing for much of the 20th century, Reel DVD are releasing a fantastic 8 disc box set from the Cinesound Movietone Newsreel Archives next January and we have four of the box sets for you to win.

This extraordinary collection holds up a mirror to triumph and disaster, to the glorious and the banal, and demonstrates how ordinary Australians, as well as its heroes, moulded Australia as a nation.

The stunning series is a fascinating insight into historical and everyday events that shaped our world and our lives over the decades. From news, sports, politics and disasters this is a nostalgic and important record of times gone by.

In 2003 UNESCO placed the Cinesound Movietone Archive, alongside the Endeavour journal of Captain Cook, on its Memory of the World Register.

We have 4 copies of this great box set up for grabs and to win a copy all you have to do is tell us what year Phar Lap won his first Melbourne Cup.

The Competition runs until 19 January 2008.
