Ledger, 1946-1947

Historical information

Found in the National Wool Museum, may have been used in the wool brokers office display. Although it is unclear, we believe it may be the original wool broker ledger for one of the agents working out of the Dennys Lascelles building. Ledger contains an alphabetic list (by surname) of all wool growers who sold through this agent/broker, including name, number of bales/fadges/sacks, property address, bale stencil used, stock agent rebate and date of arrival. There is also a list of new clients on the back pages.

Physical description

Ledger with front cover missing and several pages missing. Back cover is loose but stored with item. Front pages bent/folded. Pages are lined and contain hand-written text below headings. Text is organised alphabetically by surname.
