This book is a technical book that was originally from the Wendouree Woollen Mills but latterly was part of a collection of books owned by the Warrnambool Woollen Mill. The Wendouree Woollen Mills in Ballarat began in 1870 as a flour mill and became the Doveton Woollen Mill in 1877. In 1918 it became the Myer Woollen Mill (Myer Emporium ownership) and in the 1920s it was a knitting mill. After Myer sold the mill it was known as Wendouree Woollen Mill but it closed in 1975. The Warrnambool Woollen Mill in Harris Street, Warrnambool was established in 1910 on the site of an earlier woollen mill destroyed by fire in 1882. It was a successful business for many years and closed in 2000 after 90 years of operations but by that time it had been bought by successive companies including the multinational company Dunlop. In 1968 the Warrnambool Woollen Mills (Dunlop era) purchased Wendouree Woollen Mills and transferred much of its operations to Warrnambool until the Ballarat mill was closed in 1975. This explains why a Wendouree Woollen Mill book was in the Warrnambool Woollen Mill building when it closed. This book is of some interest as a good example of technical books produced in the early 1920s. It would have been well-used by woollen mills workers and foremen at the time. It is also of interest as it comes from the Warrnambool Woollen Mill and so it is a memento of a most important and influential business in Warrnambool in the 20th century. A great number of local people were employed at this mill over the years and it enjoyed for many years a national reputation for quality products. This is a hard cover book with a dark blue cover and gold lettering on the front cover and the spine. The title of the book is printed in an ornate script and is underlined with two gold lines. The book has 277 pages commencing with page 273 as the book is Volume Two of this title. The book, about wool combing was written by Fred Bradbury.

This place represents one of the most relevant touristic places of Tasmania and brings to the local government a very good amount of income for local developments and self management of the place.

Although the inscription of .1 states this building was transported to Maryborough it's clear that the building remained in Clunes at least until the knitting mill was relocated from Fraser Street, (now known as Collins Place) to the corner of Bailey and Camp Streets, perhaps this building was extraneous its new location and was then moved to Maryborough at some date after 1918..1 SEPIA PHOTOGRAPH OF THE MOVE OF THE SALVATION ARMY HALL TO COLLINS PLACE WITH A CROWD OF PEOPLE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING AND A LARGE "TRACTOR" IN THE DOORWAY .2 SEPIA PHOTOGRAPH OF THE MOVE OF THE SALVATION ARMY HALL TO COLLINS PLACE WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING AND A TRACTOR MOVING INTO POSITION .1 on reverse; At Clunes part of mill ready for transport to Maryborough (Plate is similar not negative of this)local history, churches - salvation army, salvation army hall
