Dr Bottomley was born in Fitzroy in 1881 and obtained a Bachelor of Surgery from the University of Melbourne in 1906. He lived in South Yarra with a weekend log cabin called Forest Lodge in Emerald and practiced in Collins Street in Melbourne. These weights were used with a scale to dispense correct quantities of drugs or ingredients; the tweezers may have been used to combine substances on the glass slide ready for use. In the 1920s Dr Bottomley and business partner W.H. Treganowan initiated the Emerald Country Club syndicate to purchase land from Carl Axel Nobelius' Gembrook Nurseries estate, which led to the formation of the golf course and Country Club facilities. Bottomley Drive in Emerald is named after Dr Bottomley; the street is located near Silver Birches, the house commissioned by the doctor from modernist architect Harry Norris. These weights were used with a scale to dispense correct quantities of drugs or ingredients; the tweezers may have been used to combine substances on the glass slide ready for use. The apothecary system of weights was tailored to measuring medicinal ingredients; it and the Troy system (which was used for measuring precious metals such as silver and gold) both have twelve ounces to the pound, in comparison to the Avoirdupois method which was used for heavier items and had sixteen ounces to the pound. These measurement systems were used extensively throughout the world until the 1960s when the widespread adoption of the metric system standardised processes.These items are significant as they provide insights into medical practice in the early Twentieth-Century in Melbourne and surrounds. They are also significant because they were used by Dr William Bottomley, who owned property in Emerald and whose business dealings significantly shaped the development of the town.Wooden box with a metal latch, maker's label and owner's name. Inside the box there is a black cloth lining to encase eight brass and five tin weights, a glass slide and tweezers. There is space for an additional brass weight and eight tin weights, but these spaces are empty.Obverse: D W H BOTTOMLEY / H.B SELBY & CO.

Bottomley Drive in Emerald is named after Dr Bottomley; the street is located near Silver Birches, the house commissioned by the doctor from modernist architect Harry Norris. 'Action traction' obstetrical forceps were invented by Dr Robert Milne-Murray, a practicing physician at the Royal Maternity and the Simpson Memorial Pavilion in Edinburgh in 1891. They were designed to allow the attending physician to obtain a secure hold on the infant before pulling backwards on the handle to facilitate the baby's birth. Forceps to extract fetuses from women who would otherwise die during complications in labour have been used as a last resort since 1500 BCE, though it has only been in the last 300-500 years that forceps design has shifted to focusing on saving the lives of both mother and infant. These are fenestrated forceps, with a hollow 'blade' or loop, which have been superseded as a design by solid models that are less likely to cause compression damage to the baby's head.These items are significant as they provide insights into medical practice in the early Twentieth-Century in Melbourne and surrounds. They are also significant because they were used by Dr William Bottomley, who owned property in Emerald and whose business dealings significantly shaped the development of the town.The silver-coloured item is approximately fifteen centimetres long; it has a solid metal handle bar and a stem leading to a flat panel with two holes that are designed to connect it to the body of the forceps. These forceps are from the collection of equipment used by Dr William Bottomley, who practiced in Collins Street in Melbourne after receiving his Bachelor of Surgery from the University of Melbourne in 1906.
