'Moomba' 1974

This silent 16mm film shows footage of the 1974 Moomba parade through Melbourne, filmed at the corner of Victoria and Swanston Streets, opposite the City Baths. The parade begins with a marching band, followed by Disney cartoon characters Captain Hook and Mr Smee from Peter Pan, and Goofy. The 1974 Queen of Moomba Marianne Perrott appears on a decorative blue float, seated in a throne behind the distinctive white swan. The camera then follows the rest of the parade, featuring entertainers, celebrities and characters such as Humphrey B. Bear, Daryl Somers and Ossie Ostrich, and a particularly impressive display of decorated floats and performances. Some of the notable appearances include Waltons department store, a group of Michelin men, the new Holden Torana with a sign reading “just in time for Moomba”, ATV0 ‘Australia’s Action Station’, Bendigo Pottery featuring a potter making ceramics on a wheel, Jewel Box, the Royal Children’s Hospital Pied Pipers, a Ukrainian Easter float, a Chinese dragon dance, Whittlesea District Mini Bike Club, and the Hungarian Square Dancing Association.
