“This booklet is significant because it is an attempt by a food company to market their product to parents by including educational games, in this case about Aboriginal people. The booklet reflects the interests of the period (1940s - 1950s) where Aboriginal people were seen primarily through their customs. It also attempts to reflect the different Aboriginal groupings as known at the time through the reproduction of Tindales 1940 'tribal' map of Australia.”
