Australia Day began as a recruitment drive in WWI in the wake of the Anzac landing at Gallipoli. Towns all over Australia were encouraged to promote this day through the holding of parades etc. A series of photographs for Australia Day in Gosford in 1915 can be found on Central Coast Library’s Gostalgia sitehttps://www.flickr.com/photos/gostalgia/albums/72157645455765249
