What's Happening in Perth, WA…

The felling of a tree on the site of Kings Park marked the founding of Perth, Western Australia, on August 12th, 1829. The new colony, which included a second site at Fremantle, had been earmarked for development by free European settlers, opening the way for the sale of land to private citizens. Many aspects of the city’s early history and growth have been detailed in publications produced by booklet printers in Perth. While free settlers were the first to arrive in Perth, a shortage of labour saw the British government advocate the use of convicts to work on many of the early constructions. During the 19th Century, many prominent buildings were established, including the old Court House in 1836. St George’s Cathedral opened in 1888 and remains in use today. Printed material such as tourist guides to Perth’s historic landmarks, are among the many services on offer here at Minuteman Press.

While growth in the new settlement was rather slow at first, the discovery of gold in 1892 saw the local population boom. The Perth Mint, which still remains a popular place for tourists to visit, was established in 1899. It has been the subject of countless local history accounts produced by booklet printers in Perth.
