Functional object - Leather Scroll Holder
This leather tool roll was likely used by mechanics, engineers, or military personnel for storing essential tools in a compact, organized manner. The "MVI" marking suggests it could be linked to military vehicles, transport services, or an inspection organization. The aged leather and signs of wear suggest it could be from the early to mid-20th century, potentially World War II-era or earlier.This is a vintage leather tool roll or equipment case, designed for storing and transporting tools, instruments, or specialized equipment. It is made of thick brown leather, which has visible wear, scratches, and scuffs, indicating extensive use over time. The roll is secured with two adjustable leather straps with metal buckles, keeping the contents protected when rolled up. A metal identification plate is affixed to the exterior of the roll, inscribed with "MVI", which may signify an organization, military unit, or manufacturer. The tool roll also features a sturdy leather carrying handle, making it portable.The metal plate inscription "MVI" could have multiple interpretations, possibly related to: Military Vehicle Inspection (MVI) – suggesting military or engineering use. Melbourne Vehicle Inspection (MVI) – related to early transport or mechanical services in Victoria, Australia. Manufacturer's Mark – identifying a brand or company initials. There may be additional markings inside the roll, such as a stamp or logo, that could provide more details.commerical item, war, tool bag, military -

Photograph - Wodonga, Victoria sign and the Fruit Fly check point c1970s
The permanent fruit fly road blocks in Victoria began in 1958. The first was set up on the Lincoln Causeway between Albury and Wodonga. The aim was to protect the Victorian fruit export industry, the largest in the country. Cars would be stopped and inspected when entering Victoria. At peaks periods, such as Easter and school holidays, there were up to 10 inspectors at the 24 hour checkpoint near the former butter factory on the Lincoln Causeway. Local residents could apply for a pass which would be displayed on their window, but were still subject to random checks. Hundreds of tonnes of fruit each week was confiscated and pulverised by Department of Agriculture staff. The road block was closed in 1980, partly due to the increased traffic flows and the cost of maintaining inspection points.This image reflects government measures taken to protect the fruit industry in Victoria.A large image of the LIncoln Causeway at the Victorian/NSW border at Wodonga. The southbound lanes on the right hand side feature overhead signals and traffic light signs to control traffic leading into the Fruit fly inspection checkpoint ahead. The photo is in a wooden frame.On right hand side: Border sign: Wodonga/Victoria and the Victorian State Coat of Arms.fruit fly control, victoria border, lincoln causeway wodonga -
