Issued in Perth by the Society following its founding in 1926, these original softcover publications represent some of the earliest organised efforts to document, preserve, and interpret Western Australia's colonial and social history. Covering Volume I through to later volumes and parts, the collection offers a rich and continuous record of scholarly work, local research, and primary historical accounts from the interwar and post-war periods.\n              \u003c\/font\u003e\n              \u003cdiv\u003e\n               \u003cfont color=\"#111111\" face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n                \u003cbr\u003e\n               \u003c\/font\u003e\n              \u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv\u003e\n               \u003cfont color=\"#111111\" face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n                Within these journals are a wealth of articles addressing early settlement, pioneering families, Indigenous encounters, social customs, and the development of Western Australian institutions and communities. Authored by notable historians and contemporary contributors of the time, the content provides valuable firsthand perspectives and early historiography, often drawing upon sources and oral histories that are no longer accessible today. Pieces such as \"Early Social Life and Fashions\" exemplify the depth and character of these publications, making them an important reference source for researchers, genealogists, and collectors alike.\n               \u003c\/font\u003e\n              \u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cfont color=\"#111111\" face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n               \u003cbr\u003e\n               Presented as a 20-part lot, the journals remain in good vintage condition overall, with age-related toning, light foxing, and handling wear evident, particularly to covers and spines, consistent with their age and original format. A rare opportunity to acquire a broad early run in one offering, this collection holds strong appeal for collectors of Australian historical ephemera, institutional publications, and those with a focused interest in Western Australian heritage.\n              \u003c\/font\u003e\n              \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(17, 17, 17); font-family: Arial; font-size: large;\"\u003e\n               \"\n              \u003c\/span\u003e\n             \u003c\/div\u003e\n             \u003cdiv\u003e\n              \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400; color: rgb(17, 17, 17); font-family: Arial; font-size: large;\"\u003e\n               \u003cbr\u003e\n              \u003c\/span\u003e\n             \u003c\/div\u003e\n             \u003cdiv\u003e\n              \u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n               General wear and fading to covers and spines as shown (some damage to cover of 1928 edition only).
