Postcard - Black and White, Valentine & Sons Publishing Co, "Town Hall and Sturt St Ballarat", 1905 or 1906
Black and white postcard of an electric tram towing a heavily loaded former horse tram trailer in Sturt St Ballarat.

Numerous people in the street, some horse drawn vehicles in the photograph. Shows buildings along the south side of Sturt St. and part of the verandah of the building at the NE corner of Doveton St. See pdf file for holdings of the same photograph in different formats and reproductions, titled "Notes on ESCo Tram towing a heavily loaded trailer – Sturt St Ballarat"Demonstrates the use of horse trams as trailers after the start of the electric trams in Ballarat and the street scape and tramway loading at the same time.Black and white postcard made by Valentine & Sonsballarat, sturt st, trailers, horse tram, town hall, esco -

Book, Plan of General Development, Melbourne : Report of the Metropolitan Town Planning Commission, 1929
The 1929 report of the Metropolitan Town Planning Commission covering Melbourne and its suburbs. Includes photographs and 15 folding maps (some in rear pocket) This was a planning scheme to prevent 'misuse' of land and protect property values. It highlighted traffic congestion, the distribution of recreational open space and haphazard intermingling of land uses. The plan identified a number of problems, such as the congestion at St Kilda Junction, that were not addressed until decades later. The plan also recognised the value of Melbourne's waterways as an open space network.xii, 308 p., [25] leaves of plates (24 folded) : ill., maps (some col.), ports., plans ; 34 cm.

Freemasons Victoria - Gordon Lodge, 99
Essendon Town Hall 1886
Whilst the foundation stone for the Ascot Vale Masonic Hall was laid in 1886 Gordon Lodge was not able to meet in their new lodge-room until 1887. In the meantime whilst the Ascot Vale Masonic Hall was being build subsequent meetings were held in the Essendon Council Chambers however this was not a satisfactory arrangement Consequently at the June 1886 meeting a motion was passed that the Gordon Lodge hold its meeting, “…at the Melbourne Masonic Hall, Collins Street East, until such time as the Ascot Vale Masonic Hall is ready for occupancy…” (Due to a ball in full progress) So for the next 6 months the Lodge met at the Masonic Hall at 25 Collins Street. -
