1945: Historic rugby photo poses perfect mystery


"AKRAD Woman's Rugby Team v The Business Girls Team - 1945" is the only information scribbled on the back of this photo held by the Waihi Arts Centre and Museum.

The photo is waiting to be included in the museum's new computer archive database Past Perfect and the "past perfect" girls are hoping Waihi Leader readers can shed some light on it.

The "past perfect" girls meet once a month; an opportunity for some of Waihi's older identities to attach stories and a background to photos held at the museum - or put stories to the faces in the pictures.

"However, some photos are just beyond the age or memories of all of us and we need more help," says archivist Harriet Taylor.

Anyone with information about the photo, or who would like to join the photo group, can contact Harriet on 863 6063 or by emailing research@waihimuseum.co.nz.
