Historical information
A small flyer sent out locally to members and for wider advertising around Ballarat by the Ballarat Horticultural Society in 1914.
Significance
This poster demonstrates the belief early in World War I that the war would soon be over. It highlights the lack of significance given to the war at this early stage. It is also a rare survivor of up-beat regional Australian (Ballarat) advertising during the Great War.
