Negative Blossom Tree Allan Doney ...In the years of Allan Doney’s photography, landmark buildings succumbed to fire, neglect and redevelopment. He photographed the grey sand hills from Bendigo’s mining past, the streetscapes, poppet heads, miners’ cottages, gracious homes with ornate verandahs, trams and much more. Above all, his photographs show how much of the city has survived from the 19th century – and how much has not.

Textile Marghab Madeira Hand towel Marghab Company ...Marghab Linens Ltd. was a company specialising in table linens founded on Madeira in 1933 by British Cypriot Emile Marghab and his South Dakotan wife Vera (née Way); and disestablished in 1980.The company was also known as Emile Marghab Inc. Since 1850, when Madeiran natives were introduced to hand embroidery as a means of industry, the islands had been renowned for their needlework. The Marghabs took advantage of this reputation, producing textiles that were skilfully hand-embroidered on the highest quality Irish linen and a form of organdie called Margandie, made in Switzerland, and harder wearing than usual organdie. The linens were designed by Vera, and hand-embroidered as a home industry by the women on Madeira, who Vera insisted received payment per stitch - which for a single place mat could amount to seventy thousand stitches.Pale grey linen hand towel with white embroidery, cutwork and applique.

The Beechworth Burke MuseumAnimal specimen - Regent Honey-Eater, Trustees of the Australian Museum, 1860-1880
... The Regent Honeyeater is found in eucalypt forests and woodlands, particularly in blossoming trees and mistletoe. It is also seen in orchards and urban gardens. ...The Regent Honeyeater is found in eucalypt forests and woodlands, particularly in blossoming trees and mistletoe. It is also seen in orchards and urban gardens. ...The Warty-faced honeyeater Formerly more widely distributed in south-eastern mainland Australia from Rockhampton, Queensland to Adelaide, South Australia, the Regent Honeyeater is now confined to Victoria and New South Wales, and is strongly associated with the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range. The Regent Honeyeater is found in eucalypt forests and woodlands, particularly in blossoming trees and mistletoe. It is also seen in orchards and urban gardens. This species is critically endangered. They are native to Southeastern Australia. Specimen is mounted accurately. Colour around the eyes is red whereas they are yellow normally. This specimen is part of a collection of almost 200 animal specimens that were originally acquired as skins from various institutions across Australia, including the Australian Museum in Sydney and the National Museum of Victoria (known as Museums Victoria since 1983), as well as individuals such as amateur anthropologist Reynell Eveleigh Johns between 1860-1880. These skins were then mounted by members of the Burke Museum Committee and put-on display in the formal space of the Museum’s original exhibition hall where they continue to be on display. This display of taxidermy mounts initially served to instruct visitors to the Burke Museum of the natural world around them, today it serves as an insight into the collecting habits of the 19th century. This specimen is part of a significant and rare taxidermy mount collection in the Burke Museum. This collection is scientifically and culturally important for reminding us of how science continues to shape our understanding of the modern world. They demonstrate a capacity to hold evidence of how Australia’s fauna history existed in the past and are potentially important for future environmental research. This collection continues to be on display in the Museum and has become a key part to interpreting the collecting habits of the 19th century.The striking Regent Honeyeater (Warty-faced honeyeater) has a black head, neck and upper breast, a lemon yellow back and breast scaled black, with the underparts grading into a white rump, black wings with conspicuous yellow patches, and a black tail edged yellow. In males, the dark eye is surrounded by yellowish warty bare skin. Females are smaller, with a bare yellowish patch under the eye only, and have less black on the throat. Young birds resemble females, but are browner and have a paler bill. The colouring of this particular specimen helps identify it as male.Swing-tag: 56a. / Warty-Faced Honeyeater / See Catalogue, page 18taxidermy mount, taxidermy, animalia, burke museum, beechworth, australian museum, skin, reynell eveleigh johns, bird, australian bird, honey-eater, warty-faced honey-eater, regent honeyeater, critically endangered, yellow -

The title and descriptive detail comprises the following text running along the top: ‘CATALOGUE OF FRUIT TREES 1913’, with further smaller, detailed text in the middle, followed by ‘C A NOBELIUS’ printed along the bottom. ...This sales catalogue was developed by Carl Axel Nobelius to market the variety of nursery stock he had for sale. It was printed by D. W. Paterson Co, a printing firm based in Melbourne, and then distributed widely both interstate and overseas. This particular copy was owned by Gus Ryberg, past Nobelius Heritage Park curator between 1983 and 2000. Gus donated this issue to the Museum, where it is enjoyed as part of a larger set of illustrated sales catalogues. This example is one of the 16 such illustrated sales catalogues in the Emerald Museum collection. They date between 1898 and 1939 (1898, 1903, 1906 x2, 1907, 1909, 1911, 1913, 1918, 1922, 1926, 1928, 1929 x2, 1931, 1933 and 1935). This issue was chosen because it illustrates the nursery sales at the height of its success, just prior to WWI, and is one of the few examples with the tear-away order form and return envelope intact. Other identified examples of Nobelius Nursery illustrated sales catalogues are held at the National Library of Australia (1936 issue), the State Library of Victoria (1934 issue) and the Latrobe University Library (1898 issue). The existence of another 1913 catalogue has yet to be identified in a public collection. Other nursery collections also contain sales catalogues of their own.The sales catalogue is of historic, artistic and scientific (research and horticultural) significance. It was produced and distributed by Carl Axel Nobelius of Nobelius Nursery, contributing to understandings of how Nobelius’ client networks were expanded and maintained by promotional activities. The catalogue also demonstrates the integrity and reliability of Nobelius as a distributor who actively engaged with his clients, evidenced by an open letter within the catalogue, which states “…if I make a mistake I will replace the planting”. The catalogue therefore contributes to understandings of how the Nursery gained its success.The light green catalogue cover features the same image on its front and back, comprising a botanical illustration of a blossoming fruit tree branch. The title and descriptive detail comprises the following text running along the top: ‘CATALOGUE OF FRUIT TREES 1913’, with further smaller, detailed text in the middle, followed by ‘C A NOBELIUS’ printed along the bottom. All text on the cover is in a red/pink font. The catalogue contains 68 pages of black and white text, as well as colour and black & white image plates. The catalogue opens with a tear-away order form and return envelope, a ‘General Remarks’ section written as an ‘open letter’ to clients by Nobelius, and then in its remaining pages, listings of the different varieties of stock available for sale over that calendar year.)emerald, victoria, australia, nurseries (plants), catalogues, nobelius nursery, gembrook nurseries, carl axel nobelius
