John Thomas, soldier, convicted of stealing slippers

from North East Museums

• A.Davey said:

  Sad.

  6 months hard labour for one pair of slippers? Man that's a bit harsh given he'd offered up his life to protect those who sentenced him..

Gold surveying camp near Trunkey, New South Wales, 1872-1874

from State Library of New South Wales

• Merryjack said:

  Lovely scan, so much detail: the birdcage, the recently washed and neatly lined up tin mugs and plates, the fine bark hut, the camp oven, the billies, the wash dishes... Machattie Park in Bathurst was named for Dr Richard Machattie. www.environment.nsw.gov.au/heritageapp/ViewHeritageItemDe...

• Blue Mountains Library, Local Studies said:

  Merryjack Plenty of fire wood and that large camp oven appears to be adjacent to a fire pit. Is that a big pumpkin on the right with a smaller one on top? I suspect Beaufoy Merlin arranged the objects in the foreground to add interest to the photo.

• Highranger said:

  Merryjack I agree, although a poor attempt arranging the items when just moving the camera forward a bit would have solved the empty space problem and provided a closer detail of the subjects.

• State Library of New South Wales said:

  Thanks for all the extra information - there's a wealth of detail in these negatives. The clarity and focal depth early cameras like this one was very good especially on the larger plates like this 10 in. x 12 in one. But the exposure times were another matter as you can see with the trees and the tent flap.

Maryborough Railway Station, ca. 1882

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Built in 1882, the heritage-listed Maryborough Railway Station features a Victorian design. The stationmaster’s residence has much of the character of larger Queensland houses of that era. The railway complex also houses the Whistlestop Museum, which documents Maryborough’s impressive rail history. The first sod for the railway line from Maryborough to Gympie was turned in 1878, with pick and shovel gangs completing the project in three years. In 1895, the district boasted 300 items of locally made rolling stock. Maryborough has long been a major supplier of steam, diesel-electric and electric trains and train carriages in a railway history that began in 1873. The railway station also has an air raid shelter built during the Second World War in viewing distance. Source: www.visitfrasercoast.com/product/old-maryborough-railway-...
