Functional object - Rega Spray Pumps
Manually operated sprayers like this were essential tools before modern electric or battery-powered sprayers became widespread. They provided an affordable and effective method for small-scale farming and domestic gardening. The durability of brass and copper components made these sprayers long-lasting and repairable, contrasting with modern plastic alternatives. Used primarily as a garden or agricultural sprayer, often for applying: Pesticides Fungicides Liquid fertilizers Cleaning agents The user pumps the handle to pressurize the liquid in the reservoir, then releases it through the nozzle as a fine mist or jet spray. Such sprayers were commonly used in gardens, orchards, and farms during the early to mid-20th century.A hand-operated spray pump with a copper or brass reservoir and a long cylindrical brass pump handle. The handle is fitted with a rounded green grip, likely made of wood or Bakelite, designed for comfortable manual operation. The reservoir (tank) is rounded and made of metal, showing signs of oxidation and wear, indicative of age and past use. A small nozzle at the top allows for the release of liquid, possibly fitted with an adjustable spray tip.insect, pest, spray, pump, household item, farm equipment -

Functional object - Demijons
These demijohns were commonly used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for bulk storage and transportation of alcoholic beverages, vinegar, and other liquids. The Natimuk Hotel and A.M.

Stoneware jugs like these were reusable and refillable, making them an early example of sustainable packaging.A collection of three stoneware demijohns, used historically for storing and transporting liquids such as wine, spirits, or vinegar. Each jug features a cylindrical body, a narrow neck, and a small pouring spout.

Container - Bottle, John Fletcher
The making of cordials and aerated waters was an important industry in Warrnambool from the time of the first settlement up to the 1980s. John Fletcher succeeded John Davis in Koroit Street in 1885 and manufactured aerated waters, soda, lithia, tonic waters, lemonade, ginger ale, hop beer, hop bitters, sarsparilla and cordials. He sold to Ralph Reeves in 1930 and the business continued until the 1908s under the name of Reeves. Warrnambool cordial bottles are of considerable significance as examples of an important local industry now gone. The Fletcher business was a well-known business in Warrnambool for 45 years.This is a small size plain glass bottle manufactured for liquids sold commercially.On side of bottle ‘John Fletcher Warrnambool’ ‘Trade Mark’ with incision of symbol showing a crown with a Maltese Cross and three fleurs-de-lys.

Tool - Drench Gun, 1940-1950
There are several different designs of drench guns within the NWM Collection that show the change in their development over time. This drench gun has a large diameter curvature suggesting this gun was typically used for dosing ewes as opposed to lambs. The attached spring-loaded hose is the only example in our collection how this mechanism works. The hose will be screwed into the liquid which is used to drench the sheep. This liquid is typically located on the back of the operator who will wear a large container in a backpack. This gun also has a adjustable dosing mechanism located on the right side of the gun.Silver metal with black finishing drench gun. Large curvature tip on gun protrudes from the body which feature a thin squeezable trigger to the front of the body. The main bulk, which the trigger is squeezed towards, has badge which reads “Manufactured and designed by N.J. Phillips Pty Ltd, Sydney”. Behind this body is silver cylinder featuring attachment point for the tubing which would have carried the liquid drench into the gun. The attached tubing has a yellow/orange appearance from remanence of drench which would have been this colour.Left rotated lettering: MANUFACTURED/ & DESIGNED BY/ N.J.PHILLIPS PTY. LTD./ SYDNEY .

Geoffrey Kaye Museum of Anaesthetic History
Equipment - Junker's apparatus
Between 1867 and 1920, anaesthesia for dental operations was often maintained by blowing the vapour of ether or chloroform into the patients' oral or nasal pharynx. Junker's inhalers are a "blow over" device used with a hand-held bellows to bubble air through liquid chloroform and to the patient. It was initially intended for use with bichloride of methylene, a mixture of chloroform and methyl alcohol. Ferdinand Ethelbert Junker introduced his inhaler in 1867 as appointed physician to Samaritan Free Hospital for Women (although it didn't have that name until c.1904). Glass jar with liquid measure markers etched onto. The jar has a metal lid, with a metal tube descending into the jar. Two metal tubes are protuding out of the top of the lid, and each has a small section of rubber tubing attached. There is also a metal hook, used to attached the jar to the physicians (anaesthetist's) lapel.Stamped into frame of metal lid: LONDON MADEjunker, blow over, chloroform, samaritan free hospital for women -

Domestic object - Enamel Cooking Scoop
Likely used in kitchens, bakeries, or dairies for scooping liquids, grains, flour, or milk. Common in early to mid-20th century farmhouses, enamelware was a durable and sanitary choice before the widespread use of plastic and stainless steel. The wooden handle suggests it was meant for handling hot substances without burning the user’s hands. Could have been used for pouring batter, scooping milk, or measuring dry goods.Enamel Ladle or Cooking Scoop. A white enamel bowl with a rounded shape, deep enough for scooping or pouring liquids or grains. A blue rim lines the upper edge of the bowl, though it shows chipping and wear in places. A wooden handle, turned and shaped for grip, is attached with a metal connector to the bowl. The handle appears to be light-coloured wood, possibly beech or pine, and has signs of age and wear.cooking, kitchen, scoop, food, household item -

Domestic object - Kitchen Strainer & Serving Spoon
These utensils appear to be vintage kitchen tools, likely from the early to mid-20th century. The rust and patina suggest prolonged exposure to moisture or age-related oxidation. Such tools were commonly used in home and commercial kitchens for cooking, straining liquids, and draining fried foods. The presence of a wooden handle on the strainer indicates a more traditional manufacturing style before plastic became widely used in kitchenware. These items may have been part of a household or a communal kitchen, possibly from a rural or historical setting.The image features two kitchen utensils – a metal slotted spoon and a fine-mesh strainer. The slotted spoon has a long, rusted metal handle and a wide, oval-shaped head with multiple horizontal slots for draining liquids. The fine-mesh strainer consists of a round wire mesh bowl with a metal frame and a twisted metal handle with a wooden grip.kitchen strainer, slotted serving spoon, household item, cooking -

Domestic object - Barrel Tap
A traditional term in the British Navy meaning to serve out an additional tot of grog to a ship's crew. The main brace itself was a purchase attached to the main lower yard of a square-rigged ship to brace the yard round to the wind. However, it probably has little to do with the saying beyond the fact that hauling on the main brace called for a maximum effort by the crew. In the days of sail the main brace was spliced (in terms of drink) in very bad weather or after a period of severe exertion by the crew, more as a pick-me-up than for any other purpose. But with the introduction of steam propulsion, with machines to take most of the harder labour out of seagoing, the main brace was spliced only on occasions of celebration or, occasionally, after battle. Now that rum is no longer issued aboard ship, splicing the main brace is a thing of the past.A small tap used to empty contents from a barrel containing rum or whisky aboard ships.Brass spigot or tap used for inserting into a barrel containing liquid such as rum, whisky or vinegar etctap, spigot, barrel, alcohol, liquid storage
