So… I’m not long back from walking to Crater Lake over icy slippery tracks. ❄️Icy blasting wind and serenity.
Once by the warmth of the fire @ Cradle Mtn Lodge, I hunted down a postcard.
Finding one I recognised , I took it home to complete a drawing I started many moons ago.
Voila!
Hunting through my “etchings”, I discovered this…
The original postcard plus my drawing.

PIONEER FAMILIES of AUSTRALIA (1948): SOLD PP

This is a hard to find, but excellent genealogical reference.
Small folio sized hardback.
Book presents well with no foxing or torn pages. However the dust jacket is scuffed,and has some tears as in pictures.
Previous owner inscription in the front.

Pioneer Families of Australia was first published in 1939 with the object of recording in a permanent form the genealogies of those families that had established themselves in any part of Australia during the first half-century of settlement, that is to say, the period
1788-1838. It follows the descendants of the pioneer in the male line, and at the head of each family article there is a brief memoir of the pioneer himself.
The founder and editor of Pioneer Families of Australia, P. C. Mowle, was aware that the families included in the first edition represented only a small proportion of those eligible for inclusion, and invited others to notify him of their eligibility. Accordingly, in the three subsequent editions the book was expanded as more information was supplied by descendants of pioneer families.
The fourth edition, published in 1948, was the last one prepared by
P. C. Mowle before he died. His son,
L. M. Mowle, has now compiled an index of more than eight thousand entries which has been added to this new reprint of the fourth edition.
Pioneer Families of Australia, as well as being an important historical record, also serves to show the kinship between families in Australia and those in England, and preserves the genealogical history of some of the families that have been settled in Australia for nearly two hundred years.

VINTAGE CELLULOID JEWELLERY BOXES x2 ( Circa 1930’s): SOLD PP

These two ivory coloured trinket/jewellery boxes have their original charm and deco-inspired shapes.

Celluloid, developed in the late 19th century, launched the modern age of man-made plastics. At first celluloid was an eternal substitute—an inexpensive imitation of ivory, tortoiseshell, and even linen. Women adorned themselves with celluloid jewelry and hair combs. Some had lavish celluloid “toilet sets” on their vanity tables: hand mirrors, combs, hairbrushes, nail buffers, and other grooming items manufactured in classic ivory tones or, later, in gleaming pearlescent hues set with rhinestones. Men and women alike wore detachable collars, cuffs, and shirtfronts stiffened with celluloid. People from all walks of life used toothbrushes with celluloid handles; children played with celluloid dolls and toys. Gamblers threw celluloid dice and dealt celluloid cards.
