Summary
DescriptionRugby-union-lineout-r.jpg
English: The origins of Rugby Union in Queensland. Rugby was still a new sport in Queensland in the 1890s. The game only became popular in the late 1880s, but was the dominant code in Queensland until the advent of Rugby League in 1908. Recreational pursuits like football were limited to Saturday afternoon. Sunday was for church and ‘rest’. Sports only became popular as the working week was shortened from six days to five and a half in the late 1900s.
Queensland Museum holds over 1000 of Bert Roberts' plate glass negatives and prints from the era.

it was first published outside the United States (and not published in the U.S. within 30 days),
it was first published before 1 March 1989 without copyright notice or before 1964 without copyright renewal or before the source country established copyright relations with the United States,
it was in the public domain in its home country (Australia) on the URAA date (1 January 1996).
