Several other Rose Stereograph Company postcards of Emerald - including P319 - are listed under VEMUP1031 and were dated Jan 5th 1923, which may have been either a date of purchase or the date the photographs were all taken. If the latter, it is likely this photograph was taken on the same day while the Rose photographer was in town; however, the former is also entirely possible. Regardless, it is likely this photograph is from the 1920s, if not exactly from Jan 5th 1923. The numbers assigned to the photographs are unhelpful for dating them as the Rose company tended to reuse numbers multiple times, and after a while were no longer photographing in numerical order. However, the sepia colour and medium rose is a good indication this is from around the 1920s. It is taken from Emerald Main Street/Belgrave-Gembrook Road, looking towards Pinnocks Road - it is unclear from exactly where on the road it was taken, but it could be looking down over what is now Madigan Way.This photograph records the landscape around Emerald at the start of the 20th century.This item is a sepia postcard. The reverse features a (medium) rose dividing the centre, with printed proprietary text and a small block of handwritten annotation in blue pen. A sale price is marked in pencil, as is an accession number. The obverse has a caption below the image; the image is taken from the top of a hill, looking over a road to rolling hills fading into the background. The first hill on the left has a nursery, growing a range of trees; the other hills are mostly fields with scattered trees.Obverse: Lower left: "THE ROSE SERIES, P. 317" Lower centre: "THE VIEW FROM THE TOWNSHIP OF EMERALD, VICTORIA" Reverse: Handwritten annotation, pen: "Looking from Main Rd. / towards Pinnocks Rd. / Nursery in 1920's" Handwritten, pencil, stamp square: "$6" Left: "PUBLISHED BY THE ROSE STEREOGRAPHS / Armadale, Victoria" Upper Centre: "REAL PHOTO POST CARD / THE "ROSE" SERIES DE LUXE PRODUCED IN AUSTRALIA"1920s, emerald, rose series

The handwritten names on the reverse of this postcard - Kevin Hogan, Gwen Asling, Kevin Teasdale, and Chris Britton - are all individuals associated with the museum (to varying degrees), seemingly confirming their assessment that this postcard is mistitled and its image is not in fact of Emerald. They were likely correct, indicating that Rose Stereography may have made a mistake. It is difficult to determine how unusual this was; Rose made more than ten thousand postcards, so it is entirely possible some were not checked sufficiently. The reference number P. 1629 was reused at least two more times.While the image on this postcard may not actually be of Emerald, the fact that it is mislabeled as such still tells us about the perception of Emerald at the time of publication - that of a growing rural town amidst hills and trees.This postcard displays a sepia photograph with agricultural space - a field, fences, and trees - in the foreground, and a collection of buildings on a road rising on a hill in the background. Printed text below the image introduce the series and location, while the reverse features a medium-sized rose (a midpoint in the evolution of Rose postcards) and printed text but no message written.Obverse: Bottom Left: "THE ROSE SERIES, P. 1629 / Copyright" Bottom Center: "THE TOWNSHIP OF EMERALD, VICTORIA" Reverse: Printed, Top: "REAL PHOTO POST CARD / THE "ROSE" SERIES DE LUXE PRODUCED IN AUSTRALIA" Printed, Left Side: "PUBLISHED BY 'THE ROSE STEREOGRAPHS' / Armadale, Victoria" Handwritten, Center-Left: "NOT EMERALD / - KEVIN HOGAN / - GWEN ASLING / - KEVIN TEASDALE / - CHRIS BRITTON" Handwritten, Stamp Box: "$12"rose series, emerald

On Thursday the 19th of July, 1951, Melbourne faced the most snow it had seen in twenty years as the city recorded temperatures as low as 37.9 F (approximately 3 C) at 1pm - with Emerald likely facing colder conditions. Snow fell across Victoria, blanketing Emerald - and in this picture, John's Hill - in rare layers of snowfall. While there isn't data for Emerald itself, the Dandenongs had two inches of snowfall while Yea saw a foot a 3pm. It appears Emerald was between these two amounts, though it is difficult to tell from only this photograph. The smudged annotations obscure where the photograph was taken from, although it was possibly Edenmont Road.Snow of this magnitude is very rare in Emerald (as it is in most of Victoria) - an image of a very significant snowfall is important and one of only a few similar days in the past century.This black and white photograph looks over a snow-covered field to a hill, similarly blanketed with snow interrupted by the occasional fence or tree, rising into the cloudy sky. There are some markings and scratches in the surface of the photograph. Some of the pencil handwriting on the reverse is smudged, obscuring the name of the road the photograph was taken from."Snow / Johns Hill / from [illegible] Rd 1951"emerald, 1950s, snow

This photograph was taken as a postcard in the Rose Stereograph Company's Rose Series. It was number P. 1463 in the series, meaning it was likely taken in the 1930s or early 40s. It depicts 'West Gembrook Road' - likely now Old Gembrook Road or Belgrave-Gembrook Road - surrounded by fields on one side and small home on the other. Over 14000 Rose Series postcards were produced over the lifetime of the Company, capturing everything from major landmarks to quiet scenic roads like this. It may have been taken by Karl Visser.The photograph depicts part of Emerald as it was in the 1930s. At the time, it was considered representative of the area, enough to be published as a postcard.Black and white photograph (copy) on gloss photographic paper. Below the photo is a label describing its location and denoting it as part of the Rose Series. The photo looks down at a road with hills in the background, a field in the foreground and occasional building along the roadside.
