[NEW SOUTH WALES GOVERNMENT PHOTOGRAPHER, attributed]
Panoramic view of Trial Bay New South Wales late 1870s.
Albumen print photograph 220 x 355 mm laid down on split card section of original album page titled Trial Bay in manuscript in negative bottom right; a superb print with rich tonal range and great clarity in fine condition very short edge tear bottom left. Rare early view of the settlement at Trial Bay on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales probably dating to around 1877 when work on the breakwater was commenced by prisoners from the purpose-built Trial Bay Gaol. The photographer of this unusually wide large format view was almost cerainly commissioned by the New South Wales Department of Works; indeed he could have been the New South Wales Government Photographer himself John Sharkie. According to the SLNSW the ""Government Printing Office original negative archive is held at State Archives & Records Authority of New South Wales as NRS 21689 Images Government Printing Office & NRS 4481 Glass Negatives. State Library NSW holds a low resolution copy image only."" Trove locates only one example of an albumen print of this significant image. That particular print forms part of an album held in the collection of the Blue Mountains Library whose cataloguing notes are salient: 'Trial Bay had been recognised as a safe shipping refuge from southerlies ever since its naming after the wreck of the Brig Trial in 1817. Between 1863 and 1866 some 90 ships and 243 lives were lost forcing the NSW Colonial government to act. In 1870 Parliament voted £10000 towards the construction of a breakwater to form a “harbour of safe refuge†at Trial Bay. The Trial Bay Gaol was established in 1876 as an experimental Public Works Gaol where the inmates would construct the breakwater. Although work started in 1877 it was not completed until 1886 due to difficulties in working the hard stone inconsistent funding and contractual problems. This i.e. the settlement in this photograph may be a settlement that predates the gaol although there is evidence of stone working in the right foreground. There is also a telegraph pole and wire on the slab building in the left foreground. The gaol ruins are situated on the headland well to the photo right. The photo date may be closer to the mid 1870s. The settlement appears strangely deserted. Format: albumen photoprint title from album page.' unknown

[New South Wales] Boult, F Cecil
Pioneers". A supplement to the Christmas issue of Town and Country Journal Chromolithographic Illustration
Sydney: George Murray 1896. Very good condition. Lovely full page chromolithographic illustration of Australian pioneers on horse back exploring a tangled wooded mountain landscape which resembles the southern Alps. <br /> <br /> The illustration was printed to accompany verse written by A. B. Paterson "The Banjo" and describes the challenges the pioneers were confronted with: "When hardy bushmen started out and forced their way ahead By tangled scrub and forests grim towards the unknown west And spied the far-off promised land from off the ranges' crest."<br /> Oh! ye that sleep in lonely graves by far-off ridge and plain We drink to you in silence now as Christmas comes again The men who fought the wilderness through rough unsettled years-- The founders of our nation's life the brave old pioneers." It appears that this was the first publication of the poem.<br /> <br /> Signed at the lower right "F. Cecil Boult". Francis Cecil Boult was a British artist noted for his paintings of a wide range of sports and particularly of horses who did a magnificent representation of horses in the Australian bush. He does not appear to have visited Australia so must have been working from photographs. <br /> <br /> Below the signature in the bottom margin is "Printed in New South Wales by George Murray & Co. Ltd. litho printers Clarence St. Sydney". 17 x 23 1/2". Old fold flattened; some chipping at edges not affecting the text or image. Trove 71302175 records a digitized copy at the NLA.

SYDNEY State Banquet in commemoration of the completion of the First Hundred Years of Australian Settlement. January 26th 1888.
Sydney : S. T. Leigh & Co. 1888. Menu. Folding gilt-edged card 195 x 135 mm chromolithograph illustrated with gold highlights; second and third sides with menu catering was Baumann of Pitt Street under the supervision of W. G. Cassidy toasts and programme of music featuring decorative borders with cartouche illustrations; light foxing overall the rear side which had no printed text with some residual glue and paper adhesions from where the menu was removed from an album mount. A beautifully designed menu for the official banquet to celebrate the centenary of British settlement which was held at the Exhibition Building in Prince Alfred Park near Chalmers Street Sydney. Provenance: Removed from a dilapidated album of mounted printed ephemera compiled by J. G. O'Connor 1839-1913 Irish-born Sydney journalist printer and politician. From the ADB: 'Joseph Graham O'Connor 1839-1913 journalist and politician was born at Dareen House King's County Ireland son of Stephen O'Connor tanner and currier and his wife Ann née Graham. At 2 he went with his parents to New South Wales. Educated by the Christian Brothers and at the Sydney College he was apprenticed to a wood engraver and printer. In the late 1850s O'Connor began business as an engraver and printer and in 1860 produced the short-lived Sunbeam for the Catholic Young Men's Society. In 1864 he joined W. B. Dalley W. J. Macleay and J. J. Harpur in bringing out the unsuccessful Sydney Times devoted to 'the promotion of Australian literature and the advocacy and encouragement of native industry'. In 1867 he began the Balmain Reporter one of the earliest suburban newspapers. His journalistic pursuits became more exclusively Irish and Catholic. In 1870-71 he edited and printed the Catholic Association Reporter. In 1876 he had debts of over £1400 sold his press and was not discharged from bankruptcy until 1884 after paying 3s. in the £. In 1877 he had begun the Catholic Times in opposition to the Freeman's Journal. In 1880 Archbishop Vaughan was dissatisfied with the Freeman's independent attitude and bought the Catholic Times changing its name to the Express. In 1884 O'Connor took it over again and began the Nation devoted to Irish news; he incorporated it in the Express in 1887. In 1890 debts forced him to close his last newspaper venture and his estate was again sequestered. He had supported his unprofitable newspapers with a mostly successful printing business but in 1892 his friends had him appointed chief clerk on the Water and Sewerage Board at Newcastle from which he retired in 1909. As a youth O'Connor had helped to collect funds to relieve the 1858 Donegal famine victims and next year became an original member of the Celtic Association. In 1869-72 he was lay secretary of the Catholic Association founded by Archbishop Polding in 1867 to support a separate system for Catholic schools. In the 1870s and 1880s he organized several concert tours of country districts to raise funds for the Church. Active in municipal politics with various Irish Catholic factions he was auditor of the Sydney City Council in 1870-74. After several attempts he was elected in 1873 to the Legislative Assembly for Mudgee in the Catholic interest. Defeated in 1875 he lost again in 1880. O'Connor helped to organize the annual St Patrick's Day celebrations and did not eschew more controversial Irish causes: in 1866 he was treasurer of the Irish State Prisoners' Fund organized to assist the dependants of Fenian prisoners in Ireland; in 1871 he helped to welcome Fenian prisoners released from Western Australia and in 1883 he was one of the few prominent Irish Catholics to welcome William and John Redmond. Affectionately known as 'old white hat' from the topper he invariably wore he chaired their first Sydney meeting and was president of the local branch of the Irish National League. He remained close friends with the Redmonds and helped later Irish delegates. At Sydney in 1861 O'Connor had married Mary Earl d.1903. He died of bronchitis at his Mayfield home on 22 July 1913 and was survived by a married daughter. The Irish Parliamentary Party contributed to a monument over his grave in Sandgate cemetery.' unknown

Kenfig Hill Bridgend South Wales. 1 February 1911 to 18 January 1938. The present volume provides a fascinating sidelight into the operations of an archetypal Working Men's Club Labour leader Ed Milliband was recently described as being 'more at home in Primrose Hill than Kenfig Hill' at what was perhaps the high point of such an institution covering the period from just before the Great War to the end of the Depression of the 1930s. The accounts relate to two locations: the Cefn Institute and the Talbot Miners' Welfare Institute. The latter was founded in 1911 after a gift from the Talbot family and closed in 1959. A listed building it reopened with lottery funding in 2005. The item is 270pp. large 4to. In printed ledger by Western Mail Limited of Cardiff: in double column with 'Receipts' including printed columns for the Kenfig Hill collieries Aberbaidon Ton Philip Bryndu Cribbwr Vawr on the left-hand opening and 'Expenditure' on the right. A sturdy 41 x 34 cm. volume with plum leather quarter-binding and grey cloth covers. In gilt on spine: 'General Income and Expenditure Book'. Internally good on lightly-aged paper in aged and worn binding. Occasional sets of accounts are dated and marked as 'Audited and found correct' and signed and dated by two individuals. Loosely inserted in the volume are manuscript memoranda 2pp. 4to on one leaf with one side carrying a list of 12 Kenfig Hill names and addresses headed 'January 12th 1920 Management Committee Aberberbaiden sic for Aberbaiden a Kenfig colliery together with the name and address of the 'Examiners Rep'. The volume also contains three loose receipts dated 1913 1914 and 1938 and a note in Welsh. The first page of the volume contains a record of sums raised by 'Tickets sold for opening concert' and at the rear are two entries relating to the 'Opening Ceremony' on 20 September 1911: a record of the 'Proceeds of Tickets sold at doors' £6 16s 0d and eleven guineas to J. D. Dover for the 'cost of Luncheon'. The accounts cover everything from methylated spirits to waste paper baskets and a note indicates the care with which the accounts were kept: 'N.B.
