The Armour: Part One - The Origins and the Myths
Glenrowan author Aidan Phelan delves into the background of the Kelly Gang's iconic armour and tackles some of the pervasive myths and assumptions. Who made the armour? How many suits were made? How was it constructed? Using a mix of contemporary and modern images as well as clips from The Last Outlaw (1980) and Ned Kelly (1970), Phelan illustrates the journey of the armour from idea to completion.
