message: I've reverted to the print used in the Hurley exhibition at SLNSW, http://acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/album/albumView.aspx?acmsID=17775&itemID=823839
The print at :File:Frank Hurley - No title (A turreted berg) - Google Art Project.jpg, while more detailed, is damaged, and the "bluer" print was selected by the curators for their exhibit. --Pete Tillman (talk) 14:27, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Iceberg photo prints 

message: On eBay, a would-be seller (not me !) has put on sale an interestingly 'collectable' (originally tourist-oriented) postcard-sized photo-folder of 16 photographs titled -  "City of Fremantle - Colour Photographs of Fremantle by Capt. Frank Hurley".
It was published by John Sands Pty Ltd, Sydney.
It apparently contains coloured photographs printed on one side of the fold-out picture set, and black and white ones on the other side.
To my eye some of the compostions are most attractive; others are simply of buildings' facades, as in any ordinary postcard.
I hope to find some by looking at the NSW State Library public domain photographs that is discussed above.
I do not know how this small Fremantle City and its Harbour picture-collection might appropriately be mentioned in the biographical F.H. Article, but it is some evidence of Hurley's commercial activity seemingly in the mid- to late-1950s, to judge from the Austin A55 and the Zephyr sedan cars in the Freo. War Memorial coloured photograph.
Some vehicles in other photographs are older, but those two cars are the most modern that I can identify definitely.
In the same vein/vintage, there is a postcard-sized folder of pictures attributed to Hurley of scenes in travelling from Sydney, New South Wales to Brisbane, Queensland, which includes early FJ model Holden taxis in one picture, thus also implying a mid- to late-1950s vintage. 
As well, another coloured-pictures folder focussed upon Manly Beach - titled "Manly, South Pacific Playground" - of the famous "Seven Miles from Sydney and 1,000 miles from Care" (which was the slogan used by the Port Jackson & Manly Steamship Company in 1940 - see - http://www.manlyaustralia.com.au/information/gettingHere.asp )

message: QUESTIONS
Is FRANK HURLEY this "Lieut.-Colonel Hurley" who was injured in a motor-car accident near Warragul, Victoria ?
No given names included in this article.
See https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/1914462 
One of the BOYD family of artists, Mr. Theodore Penleigh BOYD, the driver, was killed in the roll-over on a bend.
Lt-Col. Hurley gave written evidence from his hospital bed to the Coronor.
Lt.-Col. Hurley at that time was employed by the "Commonwealth immigration office".
IT MAY HAVE BEEN Lt.-Col Thomas Ernest Victor Hurley. 114.198.119.125 (talk) 00:41, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

message: Hello
I'm a brand new user seeking advice please.
I have found numerous references, here and elsewhere, that indicate a film made by Frank Hurley "Sagebrush & Silver" was nominated for an Academy Award in 1941.  
Frank Hurley was working as an official photographer during the Second World War from 1940 to 1946. He was in the Middle East for the duration, not making films in the USA or elsewhere.  
I did some research and forwarded to the Margaret Herrick Library of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.  They checked the film itself and Hurley is not credited.  As a result they have deleted their links. 
So the source given for this information no longer supports it.
My research is not yet published, but is the fact that the reference given for this film no longer provides any connection to Frank Hurley sufficient basis to delete the statement.
Thanks
