The map was created by Tulloch and Brown. David Tulloch was one of the earliest engravers and lithographers in the state of Victoria. He arrived in Melbourne from Greenock, Scotland, on 3 January 1849. Following the discovery of gold Tulloch went to the Victorian goldfields in 1851, commissioned to make sketches of the diggers and the diggings for Ham’s Illustrated Australian Magazine. In November 1852 Tulloch set up in business as engraver, draughtsman, copperplate printer and lithographer. Tulloch took a map engraver, James Davie Brown, into partnership in March 1853; the several maps and specimens of commercial engraving they showed at the 1854 Melbourne Exhibition were awarded a bronze medal. That year Tulloch and Brown also received a silver medal at the Victorian Industrial Exhibition. The partnership was dissolved towards the end of 1856.This is a very early map of the Colony of Victoria including Belvoir (now know as Wodonga).A foldable map mounted on linen and with a board cover.

A spiral bound volume of 122 pages including maps, photographs and illustrations prepared as a travel guide to the Old Hume Highway. It includes a Foreword by Peter FitzSimons.The Hume Highway was officially named in 1928, when both the New South Wales and Victorian governments agreed to give the unified inland route between Sydney and Melbourne the name, honouring explorer Hamilton Hume who, with William Hovell, first found the overland path in 1824. Much of the original highway followed their overland route wherever the landscape allowed. The road connected many small communities and rural properties, although in many parts was narrow and unsurfaced. Over the following years alterations and some deviations occurred with changing transport needs and heavier traffic loads. One of these deviations was completed in 1933 at Table Top north of Albury between Ettamogah and Mullengandra due to the construction of the Hume Weir which flooded the existing highway. Gradually sections of the road were converted to a dual carriageway. In 1961 the first modern freeway-standard, four-lane section was completed in Victoria at Craigieburn. The Hume Highway was also rerouted in Albury to avoid the town centre. Many major bypasses and duplications in New South Wales were completed throughout the 1980s and 1990s. In 1994 the last section of the Hume Highway in Victoria was duplicated with the completion of the Wangaratta bypass. The Albury-Wodonga bypass was opened in 2007 and in 2013 the final section, the Holbrook Bypass in NSW, was opened to traffic on August 7, completing the full Sydney-Melbourne dual carriageway link. In the course of this gigantic engineering achievement, many small, historic towns throughout Victoria and New South Wales were bypassed and often forgotten by passing commuters in a rush to reach their destination. This publication includes maps and information about the sites and landmarks in these towns. It encourages travellers to venture of the modern highway and rediscover the Old Hume Highway and the stories it holds about out past.old hume highway, hume highway, travel guide hume highway, \

This magazine supplement celebrates a most significant event in the history of Australia – Federation. Australia became a nation on 1 January 1901 when 6 British colonies – New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania – united to form the Commonwealth of Australia. Prior to this time each colony acted like a separate country which caused inefficiencies and problems as the population grew. Sir Henry Parkes began the movement towards a Commonwealth. Elected delegates worked through a series of processes to finally present a constitution that would unite the colonies and give Australia a federal system of government. The people of the colonies approved the constitution in a series of referendums. The Commonwealth of Australia was declared on 1 January 1901 at a ceremony held in Centennial Park in Sydney. During the ceremony, the first Governor-General, Lord Hopetoun, was sworn-in and Australia's first Prime Minister, Edmund Barton, and federal ministers took the oath of office. The first federal elections for the new Australian Parliament were held on 29 and 30 March 1901. The first Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia was opened at noon on 9 May 1901 by the Duke of Cornwall and York (later King George V).
