Their mining expedition overlapped the subsequent tragic Conniston Massacres of Australian Warlpiri Anmatyerre and Kaytetye Indigenous Peoples in retribution for the killing of Fred Brooks.

First edition stated of this excellent account of the author’s follow-up automobile/truck expedition to his “Across Unknown Australia†which featured deep drives into the deserts of the Northern Territory and Western Australia this time driving two Guy Roadless Vehicles fitted with trailers along with an AJS motorcycle and sidecar. The British Guy trucks were rugged featuring 4-cylinder engines fitted with a detachable cylinder head and 4-speed gearbox and fitted with caterpillar tracks. The half-tracks were prone to serious wear in the desert sand eating through bushings and selals and slowed them down quite a bit. They followed Sturt Creek past Lake Stretch Billiluna Homestead and onto Gregory’s Salt Sea Lake Gregory and then the little used Canning Stock Route to Well 48. After reaching Yeeda they crossed the Fitzroy River and then onto Broome. Unfortunately the film produced during the expedition “Grip of the Wanderlust†and shown to the then Prince of Wales later King Edward VIII has now been lost.

[Aviation]. NOTT, Harry Carew
'Trip to Melbourne May 1929' cover title of an album of photographs
Adelaide: Harry Carew Nott 1929. Fine. Adelaide Harry Carew Nott 1929. A commercial photograph album oblong quarto 230 × 318 mm comprising 4 card leaves cord-bound in overlapping card covers with 21 gelatin silver photographs 84 × 136 mm or the reverse loosely attached with photocorners on both sides of the leaves and the inside surface of the covers; all photographs are captioned in white ink on the mount. Cord-bound commercial album stamped in blind 'Portraiture'; covers slightly marked and a little worn at the corners; the contents are in fine condition the last photograph is creased and cracked at one corner. A lengthy article related to this event appeared in 'The Advertiser' Thursday 23 May 1929: 'The Victorian section of the Australian Aero Club will conduct an aerial pageant at the Essendon Aerodrome near Melbourne on Saturday afternoon. The programme of events includes the Aerial Derby for which over 20 machines have been entered. Of these about eight will represent New South Wales and eight Victoria. South Australia will also have a strong representation. <p>Seven planes will leave the Parafield Aerodrome for Melbourne this morning at 9.30 if the weather permits. The following planes will comprise the formation: D.H. 60 Gipsy Moth G-AUIB D.H. Moth V-HUAM D.H. Moth V-EUAR D.H. Gipsy Moth G-AUIV D.H. Gipsy Moth G-AUKO Avro Avian G-AUSY and probably the De Havilland "Old Gold" passenger machine. The first three are Aero Club planes and the others are privately owned. <p>Flying-Officer J.A. Mollison Aero Club instructor will be leader of the formation and Mr. C.A. Hewitt will be deputy-leader. Others making the flight to Melbourne are Messrs. N. Birks J.A. Jukes A.H. Wilkins E.B. Lawson P. Knapman F. Wellington S. Hamilton L. Wood J. Churchill Smith secretary of Aero Club and Dr. H.C. Nott. The flight to Essendon will be made via Nhill Victoria. Friday will be spent by the airmen in tuning up engines for the races on the following day'. <p>The first eight photographs were taken at Parafield Aerodrome in outer-suburban Adelaide with portraits of Nott and Wood identified. These are followed by two at Nhill Aerodrome 'Mollison refuelling' and 'Lawson'; two at Ararat Aerodrome 'on Racecourse'; and eight taken at Rockbank 28 kms west of Melbourne. These are captioned 'Mollison taking off in "1B"'; 'Hewitt'; 'Nott in "A5"'; Lawson Mollison Hewitt & Wellington éxamining "A17"'; 'Hewitt Mollison Lawson & Wellington'; 'Nott Mollison Lawson & Wellington'; and 'Mollison Lawson & Hewitt'. <p>The last one taken from the air is captioned 'Crashed Aero at Nhill'. The Nhill Aviation Heritage Centre website records that on 23 May 1929 'J.A. Mollison arrived from Adelaide with 6 aircraft. One crash-landed at old Dimboola road aerodrome instead of landing at New site at Halpin Park'. The pilot was possibly Lin Wood. Harry Carew Nott unknown

[Bank of South Australia]
Two rare ephemeral items associated with the Bank of South Australia dating from the early 1840s
1 A manuscript personal promissory note 90 × 167 mm dated Adelaide 24 October 1840 - 'Three months after date pay to my order Thirty Pounds value received. F.W. Allen. To C.W. Stuart Esqre'. Stuart has written across it 'Accepted Payable at the Bank of South Australia'. It was subsequently stamped by the Bank of South Australia Adelaide when it was paid on 27 January 1841. The verso is endorsed by F.W. Allen C. Crispe and 'For the Bank of South Australia Edwd Stephens Manager'. Apart from two vertical creases and a tiny spike hole it is in fine condition. <p>2 A printed Bank of South Australia cheque 80 × 180 mm printed by Batho and Bingley London with manuscript insertions - 11 February 1841 from C.W. Stuart to Harry Lechahdee for 3 pounds. A bank stamp on it indicates it was paid out in Adelaide on 15 February 1841. It is endorsed on the verso by Robert Champlay an indecipherable signature and three small Xs. It is lightly creased with a tiny spike hole; on the verso there is a discoloured band denoting the outer surfaces when the item was originally folded; basically in excellent condition. It goes without saying that these are utterly rare ephemeral items dating from when the colony was barely four years old. However because of this we are able to identify most of the signatories thus giving these trifles much greater weight. <p>Edward Stephens 1811-1861 was appointed cashier and accountant of the South Australian Company in 1836; he arrived in the 'Coromandel' on 17 January 1837 at Holdfast Bay. 'There he set up his office in a tent but at first business was slight. He was induced to sign a letter to Governor Sir John Hindmarsh asking for a public meeting to reconsider the site of Adelaide. Although in February the meeting decided in favour of Colonel William Light's choice Stephens did not hesitate to buy eight city acres 3.2 ha when they were auctioned and later became very friendly with Light. Stephens fell foul of Hindmarsh and was rebuked by George Fife Angas for dabbling in politics' 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. In 1840 he became the Adelaide manager of the Bank of South Australia. Charles William Stuart ~1811-1891 arrived in the colony in 1836 and became Acting Police Commissioner during Alexander Tolmer's extended absences on overland gold escort duties in 1852-53. Tolmer's dismissal in November 1853 was in part due to his involvement 'in demeaning disputes with his subordinates' not least Stuart. Frederick William Allen 1813-1850 arrived on the 'Buffalo' and became a publican. Clement Crispe ~1804-1857 arrived in 1837 on the 'John Renwick' and was a butcher and farmer. Robert Champlay was married in Adelaide on 30 January 1840. Most of the biographical details have come from the 'Biographical Index of South Australians 1836-1885'. We have not yet traced Harry - there are some intriguing possibilities. 2 items. unknown

[Binding]
Acts of the Parliament of South Australia. Anno Quadragesimo Quarto et Quadragesimo Quinto Victoriae Reginae In the forty-fourth and forty-fifth year of Queen Victoria A.D. 1881
Adelaide: E. Spiller Government Printer 1881. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide E. Spiller Government Printer 1881. Quarto 8 pages last blank and 52 separately-paginated Acts in all approximately 500 pages.

The elaborate binding was likely executed by Emanuel Spiller the South Australian Government Printer at the time. Spiller's name appears as exhibitor and jury-member of competitions and exhibitions of binding and printing throughout the 1880s. The 'Sydney Mail and New South Wales Advertiser' for 27 March 1880 carries a lengthy article by John Plummer on colonial bookbindings displayed at the Sydney International Exhibition noting that '. in the South Australian Court Mr. E. Spiller the Government printer of Adelaide occupies the foremost rank'. <p>Although offered primarily as a fine example of colonial binding the Acts contained in this volume numbers 196 to 238 as well as nine Private Acts are not without interest. There are numerous railways and tramways acts as well as acts on subjects as diverse as Chinese immigration the Adelaide Synagogue mining inebriates and the substantial 'No. 237. Marine Board and Navigation Act' 143 pages. E. Spiller, Government Printer hardcover
