The Merino 200 timeline
Trace the proud history of Australian wool over the past 200 years using the timeline spread over the eight pages of this ‘Merino 200’ special feature in Beyond the Bale.
A detailed timeline with many more images is available at a new commemorative website www.merino200.com.
It may be commemorating historic events in Australia’s wool industry, but the website established especially for Merino 200 is cutting edge. With striking black and white graphics, users can let their cursor play with the wool that crosses the screen while viewing the latest news on the Merino 200 celebrations.
Managed by AWI, the website will be updated regularly as events are held.
