Dandenong/Cranbourne RSL Sub BranchFunctional object - Letter Opener, Circa 1918
Made by Albert Henry Rogers who served in the British Army during WW1, the grandfather of the donor. It was made as a symbol of hope as receiving letters from home gave them hope.

Well Jack Old Boy, I am in hospital at present with a crook knee caused through that gentle sport called football, but will soon be out. I didn't get that parcel [Dougie?] sent. I would have liked to have got it too, but never mind, better luck next time. Well, remember me to all the boys.
