1. Introduction During December 2023 the author, during a conversation with Robyn Atherton, president of the Harden Murrumburrah Historical Society, was made aware of an interesting event from 1963 concerning the Australian pop music television program Sing Sing Sing . The story was outlined in the following reminiscences by Atherton: I was a member of the girls choir at St Margaret Mary’s primary school in Merrylands, as was my sister Jeanette, aged 2 years younger than I. We practiced every lunch time in the corridor and on Saturdays at the convent on the verandah. The convent was the home of the Marist Sisters. All the grounds are now taken up by Cerdon College and Southern Cross Retirement Village. In 1963 I was in 6th class. Our choir was led by Sister Nathaniel.

It was initially compiled in 2011, and since then a number of additional images have come to light. Though many of the images are known to fans from LP and CD covers, biographical memoirs, reviews and web sites, they are listed here comprehensively for the first time in chronological order. This is to aid in the ongoing research into the life and times of Nick Drake, as the artist remains something of a mystery. Images of him are relatively, with two superb examples by Tony Evans from 1971 only "discovered" in October 2011, and a gig poster coming to light in late 2016.
