Significance

A paper bag from Uncle Fred & Aunty Val's Old Style Lolly Shop in Marysville in Victoria.
This popular shop in Marysville was originally opened in the old Barton house by Frank and Val Pryor in 1995. The lolly shop premises were destroyed, along with most of the buildings in Marysville, in the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires. The then owner, Julia Harris, reopened the lolly shop in an old shipping container until the premises was rebuilt. It is a popular shop in Marysville to this day.
