F.P. (Frank) Woolston Archive
This collection is concerned with research undertaken by the historian F.P. Woolston and associates such as Percy Trezise and Doug Seaton on cultural, material and artistic facets of Aboriginal life. Of interest is his correspondence with and knowledge of the work undertaken by the Aboriginal painter, Dick Roughsey. Much of the correspondence and academic research was done during the 1960s and 1970s, and much of the study of Aboriginal culture is taken up with conservation/preservation of rock art, language, practices, and land rights issues. The papers are augmented by folders with many original newspaper cuttings on issues regarding Aboriginal culture dating back to the 1950s (and facsimiles of articles published in Queensland newspapers in the late colonial/early federation period), and colour reproductions done in the 1950s and 1960s of Aboriginal rock art in various locations. Woolston was very much interested in ethnobotanical aspects of Aboriginal culture and included here are preserved samples of plants and vegetation that they used.
