150 of Queensland’s most significant historical documents

Eminent historian Dr Murray Johnson selects and ranks the top 150 documents from Queensland’s historical collection, in an exhibition to celebrate Queensland’s 150th Anniversary.  These are Queensland’s most significant records – the documents which took Queensland from a colony to a State, gave women the vote and extended the border.  Top 150 Documenting Queensland is an inspiring visual timeline of the decisions, events, people and places that are instrumental in Queensland’s identity.

Top 150 Documenting Queensland was commissioned by Queensland State Archives to commemorate the State’s 150th Anniversary in 2009.  Dr Murray Johnson has drawn on rare documentary heritage from the collection at Queensland State Archives to research the exhibition.

Top 150 Documenting Queensland will tour in 2009 – click on the Touring Itinerary to find your nearest venue.

The Top 150 Documenting Queensland is now available online at Top150.org.
