Functional object - Reeves' "Greyhound" Pastels
... , England in 1766. The greyhound crest was later adopted... opened his first shop near St Paul’s Cathedral in London, England ...This box of pastels was donated to the Wodonga & District Historical Society by Betty L. Barberis (nee Barton), a prominent artist. They were given to her by Mr Colin Findlay, the teacher at Upper Gundowring Primary School from 1930 to 1939. His students at that school and many others used these pastels each day. Reeves’ “Greyhound” business was originally established by William Reeves who opened his first shop near St Paul’s Cathedral in London, England in 1766. The greyhound crest was later adopted as their emblem, taken from the coat-of-arms of the extinct Ryves family of Dorset. It consisted of a black-seated greyhound spotted with gold. After William’s death, the business was carried out by his brother, in partnership with various businessmen. They sold a wide range of art supplies in England and their trade extended to supplying drawing instruments and stationery products to the East India Company in the early 1800s. In the 1920s the Greyhound Colour Works at Enfield became known especially for its famous Greyhound pastels. Reeves Greyhound products were also being made in Melbourne, Australia. They were marketed widely through schools in all States from the 1920s onwards. Reeves continues to be a huge brand both in the United Kingdom and internationally, placed in over 70 countries worldwide including America, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Africa and Australia.These pastels are significant because they were widely used in Victorian Schools and were donated to our Collection by a prominent local artist.A cardboard box with a corrugated cardboard to store 12 pastels.

... . This print of the 1746 map was produced in England by Leisure Arts..." [Medieval Map of the World] "LEISURE ARTS LTD" "Printed in England"... Map of the World] "LEISURE ARTS LTD" "Printed in England" Map ...This map from the mid-18th century doesn't include the finer details of land and sea masses that we know today. The map was produced by German cartographer and publisher, Johann Baptist Homann (1663-1724) and published in 1746, after his death. Earlier versions were published, such as 1707 and 1716. The date can be calculated from the Roman numerals on the top left text area. This print of a map is significant for its connection with early world explorers. A comparison of maps over the centuries shows the progression of navigational technology, the countries who claimed the land they explored. The naming of even some Australian locations shows who had already made their mark on Australia in the early 18th century. The print shows the fine details included by the cartographer and the beauty included that makes it attractive and interesting even today. The map is also significant for its connection with German cartographer, Johann Baptist Homann, whose Homann publishing company was renewed in Germany for producing high quality maps and atlases. Map behind glass in dark brown wooden frame on beige paper. The Coloured hand drawn line drawings show different hemispheres of the known world in the mid-18th century. Beautifully drawn figures and decorative embellishments enhance the map. The text on the top right has an explanation of the Figures I, II, III, and IV.

Cutty Sark vessel and exhibition, Greenwich, England, wood... bales and return to England in time for the wool sales ini..., Greenwich, England....England... bales and return to England in time for the wool sales ini ...The Cutty Sark was launched on 22 November 1869. She was named by the wife of George Moodie, the ship's first master who had also supervised her construction. Cutty Sark left the Clyde on 13 January 1870. A month and two days later, she set sail from London for China. Cutty sark was designed and built by Scott & Linton of Dumbarton for 16,150 pounds. But much of the money was to be paid by Willis when the ship was launched. Just before they finished her, Scott & Linton ran out of money and went bankrupt. She was completed by William Denny & Brothers. The Cutty Sark was the first ship to reach London with a tea cargo in 1877. But she was one of only nine sailing ships that returned that year - in 1870 there had been 59. Steamships were now dominating the tea trade. In 1883 the Cutty Sark joined the booming trade in transporting Australian wool. Every year until 1895 she set out in the summer for Australia, to load a cargo of wool bales and return to England in time for the wool sales ini the first three months of the new year. Cutty Sark soon established herself as the fastest of the wool clippers. Under her last master, Richard Woodget she set record times of 70 days or less for the voyage which no other sailing ships could match.Wood carving from the Cutty Sark vessel and exhibition, Greenwich, England.cutty sark, exhibition, wool, australia, sailing, woodget, moodie, london, willis, dumbarton, scott & linton, william denny, tea, cargo, immigration, trade -

Gallahue – Made in England"... – Made in England" This is a vintage wooden tie press, designed ...Tie presses like this were commonly used in the early to mid-20th century, when neckties were made from delicate fabrics like silk or wool, which required careful maintenance. The English origin suggests it was marketed toward a well-dressed clientele, possibly used by businessmen or gentlemen who took pride in their formal attire. This is a manual tie press, designed to flatten and maintain the shape of neckties without the need for ironing. Users would place their tie between the two wooden panels, tighten the clamps, and leave it pressed for a period of time. Ideal for travel, storage, or wardrobe organization, particularly in the early to mid-20th century before modern fabrics reduced the need for pressing.This is a vintage wooden tie press, designed to keep ties neatly pressed and wrinkle-free. The main features include: A rectangular wooden base with a dark brown finish. A metal clamping mechanism, consisting of a metal band and two adjustable screw-tightened clamps to apply even pressure. A label on the front, which reads: "O. Gallahue – Made in England""O. Gallahue – Made in England"tie, clothing, suit, household item, iron, press -

Given the "Made in England" marking and the retailer's ...This clock is an example of an early "Big Ben" alarm clock, a well-known brand produced by Westclox since the early 20th century. Given the "Made in England" marking and the retailer's name "James McClean & Co., Melbourne," this clock was likely imported for sale in Australia. Its worn and aged appearance suggests it was well-used, possibly dating back to the early-to-mid 20th century. Such clocks were common household items, used for waking up before the widespread use of electric alarm clocks.The item is a round, metal-cased alarm clock with a glass front. The face of the clock has large, bold black numerals on a white background that has yellowed with age. There are three hands: an hour hand, a minute hand, and a smaller dial at the top indicating the alarm function. The clock has a small round button or knob on the top, likely for adjusting the alarm, and it stands on two small, angled feet, with a third support at the back.The clock face has the text "BIG BEN" prominently displayed. Below this, the manufacturer or retailer’s name, "JAMES McCLEAN & CO. MELBOURNE", is printed. The bottom of the clock face also has "MADE IN ENGLAND", indicating its country of origin.alarm, clock, time, household item -
