25.01.2022 Willcox and Gibbs Handcrank Sewing Machine C1876. Only did chain stitch, so if the cotton broke the whole line of sewing would unravel. Belonged to Miss Alice Avery of Longreach who became a registered nurse and whilst specialising patients she would sit and sew. As the machine was hand wound it didn’t make any noise. Donated by Mrs Boo Hanrick.

22.01.2022 Can anyone guess what this is?

21.01.2022 Did you know? The Eternal Memorial Wall at the Australian Stockman’s Hall of Fame was dedicated to people who were working in the rural industries and lost thei...r lives, but it has been broadened to anyone who has a love of the bush, or a bush heritage, who wants their loved ones remembered. The Eternal Muster Wall memorial is a tribute to honour and remember with love the many generations of Australians across our vast land who have lived, loved and lost their lives in the bush. Their enduring legacy will continue to live on in our hearts for ever. This evolving memorial combines the inspiration of Tony Estcourt with support and assistance from the central western Queensland and the New South Wales branches of the Australian Stockman`s Hall of Fame and Outback Heritage Centre. #eternalmusterwall #stockmanshalloffame #visitoutbackqueensland #loveofthebush #honour
