Renowned cartoonist and history enthusiast Warren Brown shines a light on some of the most fascinating, yet unheralded stories from Australia’s rich past, through remarkable artefacts held at Sydney’s State Library of New South Wales.

From Lord Alfred Douglas’s love letters, to an Italian manuscript written in 1328, and locks of hair belonging to the creator of Frankenstein, this documentary shows objects can be every bit as interesting as the famous people in history.

First broadcast 30 November 2011.
