Photograph shows two maximum traction bogie cars with one drop end, numbered 22 and 23 on Balaclava Road at St Kilda Town Hall. Both cars are full and travelling in different directions and both carry an additional destination board reading "Esplanade". Along side one tram are a dozen men, women and children riding bicyles or in a passing motor car. Three uniformed tramwaymen are also shown. The Balaclava Road/Carlisle Street line opened in 1913 and was very busy in summer months and on weekends enabling residents in Melbourne's eastern and southern suburbs to travel directly to St Kilda Beach without having to change to cable trams. Trams 22 and 23 were part of a four car set, built for the Prahran and Malvern Tramways Trust in 1912 in Adelaide and based on a designed used there. They were sold to the Hawthorn Tramways Trust in 1916, eventually classified as O class then sold back to Adelaide in 1927. Their bulky design earned them the names 'Zepplin' and 'Dreadnought'.

The Victorian Bands' League was officially founded on the 10th of April, 1931. This new organisation quickly gained the affliations of all brass bands in Victoria and took over the control of bands from the Victorian Bands' Association. The new VBL started presenting massed bands events at the MCG and ran competitions around Victoria. This program pamphlet is a unique example of the style of massed bands events that were held at the MCG with 24 brass bands all marching into the ground and performing a number of items individually or in groups. This would have been quite a spectacle! This small program is very significant to the banding history in Victoria. It provides a wealth of information as to the bands that existed in 1933 as well as what they played, and how the VBL organised events. As well as this, there is evidence of a large number of metropolitan bands as well as bands from country areas.Small printed pamphlet on thin paper.victorian bands' league, melbourne cricket ground, malvern tramway junior, malvern tramways band, stonnington city brass, coburg west boys, prahran city, kingsville and yarraville citizens', footscray city, footscray-yarraville city brass, coburg city, northcote citizens and soldiers', essendon citizens', moonee valley brass band, geelong city, terang brass, geelong west city, south melbourne city, reservoir citizens', st. kilda city, oakleigh city, oakleigh band, hawthorn city, kensington district, brunswick city, moreland city band, moorabbin shire, metropolitan fire brigade, sunshine district, sunshine community brass, kew city, kynetown town
