Jamie Dunbar – Sydney Star Observer (SSO) Collection

This collection contains digitised photographs by Jamie Dunbar for the Sydney Star Observer. See https://archives.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/nodes/view/1969820 for images released from more photographers.  Jamie Dunbar has photographed the Gay and Lesbian scene in Sydney from the late 1980s into the 2000s. He documented protests and advocacy, parties, parades, drag queens, politicians and celebrities.  Jamie Dunbar retains copyright ownership of his photographs. For permission to publish or use any photographs commercially please contact the City Archives.  Very little descriptive information accompanied the SSO photographs. Archives volunteers recorded what was available. Some information has been crowd sourced from photographers or the LGBTIQA+ community. The City of Sydney welcomes additional information such as dates, places, names and events. Once logged in and you find a photograph, you can select the suggested edits function on the TOOLS menu. It is unclear which photographs were published in the magazine, although some have percentage signs (%) indicating the photograph size planned for publication. It is difficult to match photographs to the publication issues. Some photographs from the stock photograph library were culled by editors at various times so the collection is not complete.  Only selected photographs have been digitised and released by the City Archives. For further information please contact the City Archives.
