Nimbin Land Co-operative

This episode (#741B) of GTK entitled "Nimbin Co-ordination Co-op" (4' 10") was broadcast on 1st October 1973. It was shot at a street bazaar in Paddington in Sydney. GTK reporter, Julie Clarke, is interviewing Paul Joseph and Terry McGee who are talking about the co-operative being formed to purchase a 1000 acres of land near Nimbin for communal living. The estimated share price was to be $200 per person. No doubt a lot of money back then but what an incredible bargain by today's standards. This was an initiative that came directly out of the Aquarius Festival four and a half months earlier.
