Notes:

Part of a larger series of films produced during expeditions from 1926-1966 under the BAR. This MacDonald Downs expedition marked the beginning of “active filming” of these expeditions according to cinematographer N.B. Tindale. More details on these films is available here. Though no other copies exist in WorldCat, the South Australian Museum Archives linked hold the masters and seem to have payed mind to preservation and duplication.
