1908 Australasian Football Jubilee Carnival

Getting to the 1908 Australasian Football Jubilee Carnival was a high point for the first wave of Kiwi players of Aussie rules. They were a recognised part of the game and did well in competition. Shown here is the cover of the official programme, with the New Zealanders represented by a black shield with a golden fern motif.
