Copy of National Anthem handed out on visit of H.R.H. Duke of Edinburgh 11 December 1867

On the visit of H.R.H. Duke of Edinburgh to Australia, there was a street parade in Tarnagulla to welcome him on 11 December 1867. This included a float from The Tarnagulla & Llanelly Courier with a printing press mounted on it which printed copies of the National Anthem as it travelled in the parade, which were distributed as it moved along so everyone could sing the National Anthem.
