Fernlea was on the site of the original Emerald Police Station, so this police manual was acquired as a relevant tie to that history. It was in turn donated to the Emerald and District Museum when the Fernlea Shop of Opportunities closed in 2025. The manual was designed as a binder such that new pages could be added if regulations were updated or amended after publication - for example, one page was inserted with greater detail on radioactive materials. The book has five sections, labelled with tabs protruding from the fore-edge: 'Regulations', 'Determinations', 'Standing Orders', 'Index', and 'List of Amendments'. The index is a short section near the end using a different paper to the rest of the book, and the List of Amendments is an unmarked table, intended to catalogue amendments to the manual. The Regulations and Determinations sections are both sizeable, containing a significant number of various guidelines, but by far the largest section is 'Standing Orders'.This police manual is bound as a binder, connecting upwards of 420 pages with metal rods inserted through the loose-leaf paper to form the spine. The outer hardcover, enclosing the book, its inner covers, and the metal binder mechanism, is brown board with leatherette spine binding. The inner cover is card with a bluje and yellow pattern decorating it; the inside of the outer cover also has a decorative pattern, in pink, blue, and white, which is peeling slightly on the front cover.non-fictionThis copy of the 1957 Police Manual was purchased from collectibles shop in Olinda by a previous manager of the Fernlea Shop of Opportunities.

The book has five sections, labelled with tabs protruding from the fore-edge: 'Regulations', 'Determinations', 'Standing Orders', 'Index', and 'List of Amendments'. The index is a short section near the end using a different paper to the rest of the book, and the List of Amendments is an unmarked table, intended to catalogue amendments to the manual. The Regulations and Determinations sections are both sizeable, containing a significant number of various guidelines, but by far the largest section is 'Standing Orders'.1950s, policing -
