Significance

A black and white postcard of the ornamental lake that was in front of The Log Cabin in Marysville in Victoria.
The Log Cabin was built by Thomas Henry Branchflower who had arrived from England late in 1921. It was built for Gwendoline Pitman after the death of her father Clarence Pitman and the disappearance of her sister Olive in July 1926. Gwendoline operated an artist and souvenir shop in the newly built Log Cabin in partnership with Peter Mackey who was a Melbourne optician and artist.
This postcard was produced by the Rose Stereograph Company as a souvenir of Marysville.
