Accession[1965.0017] Papers of Joseph Bishop and familyPosition in Sequencepage 9IdentifierUMA-ITE-1965001700020Extentnot specifiedScope and ContentJoseph Bishop arrived in Melbourne during the goldrushes, ultimately establishing a coach building business at Beechworth, which was later transferred to Euroa. The family moved to Melbourne in the late 1880s, where one son became the proprietor of the trade journal 'The Australasian Coachbuilder and Saddler'. The collection consists of family photographs and photographs used to illustrate 'The Australasian Coachbuilder and Saddler'. This photograph comes from a family album containing a number of souvenir photographs taken during the celebration of Australian Federation in 1901. Many were taken in Sydney. This image shows a decorative arch, known as the Coal Arch, erected in Sydney to celebrate Federation. A flag saying 'Newcastle' is flying from the top of this arch, and the arch itself appears to be constructed from lumps of coal contained by wire netting. The slogan 'Labor Omnia Vincit' appears on the disk on top of the arch, and below that the words 'Governor General'.Access StatusOpen for public accessRequest TypeRequest itemUnitPA 0076Conditions of Use and ReproductionThis image is provided for research purposes and must not be reproduced without prior permission of University of Melbourne Archives.
