A large private collection of photographs taken during the 1981 Springbok tour - many of them never or seldom seen before - remind us of a pivotal moment in New Zealand's history. Well known photographers including Ans Westra, Peter Black, Bruce Connew and Gil Hanley are represented in the collection that's now up for auction, alongside amateurs who took striking shots of protests and pitch invasions. In 1981, Kapil Arn was one of the anti-tour protest organisers in Auckland who helped the cause by taking photographs. Lynn Freeman talks with Kapil and also with Charles Ninow from the company auctioning off the collection on behalf of the owner. Kapil remembers his famous image of Sir Bob Jones confronting protesters... The auction takes place on Wednesday at Auckland's Bowerbank Ninow.
