Keith Willis from Bordertown in SA has an extensive collection of Australian Gliding magazine going back to the very first edition.
Below is issue 1, still with its original staples. It was copied on a Roneo machine. As you can see, the Editor, Allan Ash was sceptical that she would 'ever fly'. However, 74 years later AG is now GA and still publishing. The GFA is also now GA.
Above is the first printed edition, January 1953.
Thanks to Keith, the history of the GFA can still be accessed in these old issues. Over the coming editions we will bring you more interesting material from the archives.
