The Wild Ones: Sydney Stadium 1908-1970

[Jeffles]

The Museum of Sydney is currently hosting an exhibition on "The Old Tin Shed"

I went for a visit today. It touches a bit on boxing including the famous Burns v Johnson fight, which was in 1908 (attention Cam: This website's Sydney Stadium page says the fight was in 1907).

A video of that fight is here

Anyway, the exhibition has a few photos of the venue's interior, once the roof was built over it. A couple of other shots detail what the precinct was like. Worth checking out if you are in Sydney.
