Intricate line patterns and borders were also featured to discourage forgers. Although local printers produced the National's early notes, highly skilled security printers, Bradbury Wilkinson and Co. of London, producers of banknotes for many Australian and European banks were engaged by the National to design and produce most of its banknotes. - © National Australia Bank Limited. 8727.3 - 50 - ADELAID - SOUTH AUSTRALIA - Pounds - FIFTY - On demand I promise to pay the bearer FIFTY POUNDS sterling at ADELAID 1st November 1893 - For National Bank Australia - SPECIMEN - ENTd - Manager 8727.4 - 100 - THE NATIONAL BANKOF AUSTRALIA - NEW SOUTH WALES - ONE HUNDRED - On demand I promise to pay the bearer ONE HUNDRED POUNDS sterling at SYDENY 1st January 1887 - For THE NATIONAL BANK OF AUSTRALIA - Manager - SPECIMEN - ENTd 8727.5 - MELBOURNE - 10 - POUNDS - THE NATIONAL BANK OF AUSTRALIA - LIMITED - SPECIMEN - On demand I promise to pay the bearer TEN POUNDS sterling at MELBOURNE - For NATIONAL BANK OF AUSTRALIA LIMITED - Manager - ENTd - VICTORIA 8727.6 - PERTH - WESTERN AUSTRALIA - 1 - THE NATIONAL BANK OF AUSTRALIA LIMITED - On demand I promise to pay the bearer ONE POUND sterling at PERTH - For NATIONAL BANK OF AUSTRALIA LIMITED - Manager - ENTd - SPECIMEN -

Functional object - Three hat blocks
... Coal Creek Community Park & Museum 12 Silkstone Road ...Oliver Gilpin (1874-1942), chain store proprietor, was born on 8 July 1874 at Seven Creeks near Euroa, Victoria, fourth child and second son of William Gilpin, farmer, and his wife Dinah, née Barton, both from Tyrone, Ireland. He was educated at local state schools and became a draper's assistant at Euroa. A testimonial as 'an energetic, pushing salesman, a careful stock-keeper … honest and industrious' gained him city experience with Ball & Welch Ltd, drapers, in their Carlton store. He used an inheritance to open a drapery store at Korumburra, south Gippsland, in 1895, moving to Rutherglen in the upper Murray valley in 1899. Frustrated by irregular stock deliveries, he moved to Fitzroy, Melbourne, in 1902, seeking a warehouse and the benefits of combined supplies for effective development of country trading. By 1905 he was producing many stock items at Northcote and had established retail outlets at Bendigo and Warracknabeal. Branches at Echuca, Numurkah and Yarrawonga followed in 1906, with ten more in 1907. He moved his city establishment to East Malvern in 1911, and had opened forty shops by 1920 and seventy-four by 1928. All were managed by women, on a strictly cash basis. Drapery remained the main line, supplemented by ironmongery, crockery, school requisites and toys. Gilpin saw the Depression years as a challenge. Between 1928 and 1931 he established eighteen new branches, including two in Tasmania, at Devonport and Ulverstone. The chain included South Australian branches at Mount Gambier, Millicent and Renmark, twenty-five stores in southern and western New South Wales, and ten in suburban Melbourne. Gilpin's Chain Store News was issued monthly. In 1944 Foy & Gibson acquired a controlling interest in Gilpin's business and in 1951 the chain was bought by G. J. Coles & Co. Ltd for £1,250,000.
