two books, The Bronze Swagman Book Of Bush Verse, 1979 ; 1980
The Winton Tourist Promotion Association (W.T.P.A.) was formed in October 1967, and because of the connection to Banjo Paterson and Waltzing Matilda, it wanted to encourage the writing of traditional Australian verse that was made so popular by A.B. "Banjo" Paterson, Henry Lawson etc. which is so much a part of our Australian heritage. The Bronze Swagman award was the result. (ref Bronze Swagman web-site). For 40 years the group has been publishing the verse of winning entries.Two paperback books of verse. 1832.1 has a green cover. As well as the book title it has 1979 Award Winning Poem The New Farm. 1832.2 has a yellow cover. It has 1980 Award Winning Poem Condamine Bell. Both have black print titles with a silhouette of the swagman trophy awarded to the annual winner of The Swagman Award for bush poetry.bronze-swagman literature australian-bush-poetry winton -

Documents, WCC Proposed turntable site railway station, 1968; 1989
These two plans are copies and show drawings for a proposed turntable at the Warrnambool Railway Station and railway crossings at Gilles Street in the Liebig Street precinct. The Warrnambool Railway was opened in 1890 and the Warrnambool Railway Station building was erected a few years later. These plans, being copies, are of minor interest as they show plans of some projects in the Warrnambool Railway Station precinct in the latter half of the 20th century.These are two sheets of cream-coloured paper with plans (copies of original) drawn up in black ink. The drawings are fading somewhat and are faint in places. One sheet (.2) has a piece missing from the top left hand corner. .1 ‘Locality Plan of Rail Crossings Liebig St. & Gillies (sic) St.’ .2 ‘Proposed Turntable Site Warrnambool Railway Station’ plans, warrnambool railway, warrnambool rail turntable -
