Morse key, C 1930
The Morse telegraph system had its beginnings in 1836 when Samuel Morse, Alfred Vail and Joseph Henry developed an early model of the system. There are a number of variations on the machine but the operating system is very similar in all and the language is a standardised international code which has been in operation since the 1860's. Morse code consists of five elements, dots, dashes, and gaps of one , three and seven units in length. It is still in use to this day and has been applied to other systems of communication such as amateur radio, mobile phones and communication systems for disabled people. This particular telegraph key possibly has post office or naval origins.Morse code was an important invention in world communication systems and this machine therefore has important social and research significance. It is useful as an interpretive item.This instrument sits on a black rectangular base of black bakelite. The mechanism ids held in place by three larger metal screws and two smaller ones on the upright section from the base.The movable part is metal with the attached handle a similar black material as the base.ADMY.PATT No 7681 KEY MORSE SERN PL 23780 Rocker Front contact.

Document - Manuscript, Robin Boyd, Back Doors to Toorak, 1964
Boyd reflects on the increasing growth of apartments built in the urban fabric. The growing demand for flats also contributes to the increasing number of developers who, to Boyd's dismay follow the bare minimum in the Code of Buildings that ultimately contributes and affects the romantic visions of the Australian landscape.Original manuscript of an article titled 'The Flat Revolution' published in The Australian, 13.11.1964.Typewritten (c copy), quarto, 5 pagesflat building, developer, building code, urban living, robin boyd, manuscript -
