Leisure object - Doll's pram, late-1930s to early-1940s
This doll's pram was owned by the daughter of Dr William Roy Angus and his wife Gladys when the family came to Warrnambool in the late 1930s. It is part of the W.R. Angus collection, donated by the family of Dr W R Angus, surgeon and oculist. The W R Angus Collection spans the years 1885 to the mid-1900s and includes historical medical and surgical equipment and instruments from the doctors Edward and Thomas Ryan of Nhill, Victoria. Dr Angus married Gladys in 1927 at Ballarat, the nearest big city to Nhill where he began as a Medical Assistant. He was also Acting House surgeon at the Nhill hospital where their two daughters were born. Dr Angus and his family moved to Warrnambool in 1939, where Dr Angus operated his own medical practice. He later added the responsibility of part-time Port Medical Officer and was the last person appointed to that position. Both Dr Angus and his wife were very involved in the local community, including the planning stages of the new Flagstaff Hill and the layout of the gardens there. Dr Angus passed away in March 1970.This doll's pram is connected to the history of Warrnambool, as it was owned by the daughter of Dr W. R. Angus and his wife Gladys, and is part of the W.R. Angus Collection, which is important for still being located at the site connected to Doctor Angus, Warrnambool’s last Port Medical Officer. Dr Angus and his wife brought their young family to Warrnambool in 1939 and he remained a resident until his death in 1970. Early in his profession in the town of Nhill, Dr Angus assisted Dr Tom Ryan in his pioneering use of X-rays and in ocular surgery, and Dr Angus later inherited these items. The W.R. Angus Collection includes these medical instruments and other related equipment and is culturally and historically significant as an example of the medical practice of the late 19th to the mid-20th century. Other items in the collection relate to Dr Angus’ service in the Flying Doctor Service and the Army.Pram has a folding blue vinyl hood and a rectangular, white wicker base with curved corners at the bottom. The base and hood are lined with white vinyl. The wheels have eight spokes and black rubber tyres. The curved handle has a metal bard the width of the pram, which is covered in a white rubber tube. The handle sides are joined to two curved flat bars that extend in an outwards curve away from the pram. The Hood is hinged to flip from the back to the front of the pram and is designed to can fold. The undercarriage has suspension springs. The pram is part of the W.R.

Functional object - Roy SCHMIDT Collection - Sewing Needle Books (3)
[1] The Premier Needle Book: This needle book likely dates from the early 20th century, possibly pre-WWI, during a time when Germany was a leading producer of high-quality steel sewing needles. Such needle books were commonly included in household sewing kits and often featured patriotic or aspirational imagery. The depiction of a steamship may have appealed to consumers as a symbol of progress and modernity. "Premier" was one of several brands that exported sewing products globally. This example reflects everyday domestic life and the importance of mending and garment care in an era before disposable fashion. [2] Broadway Imported Needle Assortment: This needle book was likely manufactured in Japan during the post-World War II era, circa 1950s–1960s, when Japan became a major exporter of inexpensive sewing supplies. Such items were commonly sold in variety stores and were a staple of household sewing kits. The cheerful domestic imagery and playful kittens reflect mid-century design trends aimed at appealing to homemakers. This example is representative of a time when imported sewing goods were marketed under Western-sounding brands like “Broadway” to enhance their appeal in English-speaking markets. [3] Little Red Riding Hood Needle Book: This needle book was produced by Prym, a German company known for manufacturing sewing notions since the 19th century. The fairy tale imagery suggests a mid-20th century (likely 1950s) origin, during a time when novelty and themed sewing accessories were popular for both practical and decorative use. Needle books such as this were sold in haberdasheries and department stores, especially targeting homemakers and young seamstresses. The charming storybook imagery also served to attract younger users and reflect domestic values of the period. – Roy SCHMIDT resided with his siblings Mabel and Jack at ‘Parklands’ 85 Lake Avenue Natimuk home of Heinrich Friederick ‘Heiny’ & Minna Christina SUDHOLZ nee LANGE and their children Louis, Sophie, Alma, Lena (Roy's Mother), Florence 'Florrie' and Edward ‘Ted’.[1] The Premier Needle Book: A small, illustrated cardboard needle book titled "The Premier Needle Book", featuring a colour lithograph of a warship or ocean liner on the cover, bordered with ornate golden scrollwork. The front is printed with "Premier" and "Made in Germany." Inside, the book opens to reveal several labelled compartments containing packets of assorted sewing needles (sizes 3 to 10) marked “Superior – Premier – Hardened and Tempered – Made in Germany.” A pink paper insert holds loose needles in place, neatly displayed on a green background with decorative gold trim. [2] Broadway Imported Needle Assortment: A brightly coloured, illustrated needle book titled “Broadway Imported Needle Assortment”. The front cover shows a charming domestic scene featuring two women in red clothing, one seated with a patchwork quilt and the other standing, both engaged in sewing. Two kittens playing with a red ball of yarn are illustrated in the lower left. The background is a warm yellow to orange gradient, enhancing the vintage appeal. The word "Flora" is handwritten in cursive at the top. Inside, the book contains black fabric inserts with five small, labelled packets of needles arranged in rows. The interior is printed in orange with a white geometric pattern. [3] Little Red Riding Hood Needle Book: A vibrantly illustrated fold-out needle book featuring the character of Little Red Riding Hood in scenes from the classic fairy tale. The design is printed on die-cut cardboard shaped to resemble a figure-eight when opened. The front and back depict detailed scenes from the story: Red Riding Hood in the forest with the wolf and again in the cottage with the disguised wolf in bed. Inside, the book opens to reveal red-printed background illustrations, with yellow paper needle holders stitched to the backing and holding various steel sewing needles. The book bears visible signs of wear, creasing, and edge damage, indicating prior use.[1] The Premier Needle Book: Front: “The Premier Needle Book – Premier – Made in Germany.” Inside packets: “Superior – Premier – Hardened and Tempered – Made in Germany.”, Needle size labels include numbers 3, 5, 6, 8, and 10., Background includes decorative motifs and border designs in gold. [2] Broadway Imported Needle Assortment: Front: “Broadway – TRADE MARK – IMPORTED Needle Assortment” Interior packets: “SUPERIOR – SHARPS – WARRANTED – Best in the World – Made in Japan”, Needle sizes are marked as No. 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9., Side edge (front cover): Faint printing reads “MADE IN JAPAN”. [3] Little Red Riding Hood Needle Book: Front (top right): "Prym" logo with stylised sheep motif, indicating the German manufacturer Prym, a long-standing brand in sewing supplies. Side edge: "Germany – Allemagne – Deutschland – Alemania" (multilingual export markings). Interior illustrations in white ink over red, featuring various fairy tale scenes and decorative elements. -
