There was a time when <strong>Australia</strong>’s economy and<br />
image “rode on the sheep’s back”. While wool,<br />
wheat and beef were the industry’s traditional<br />
icons, <strong>Australia</strong>n agriculture today includes<br />
such industries as wine and bush foods.<br />
The exhibition examines rural and<br />
agricultural themes on <strong>Australia</strong>n <strong>stamp</strong>s<br />
and displays the drawings, photographs and<br />
original artworks used in their design and<br />
development.<br />

<strong>Australia</strong>’s fi rst railway opened in 1854 and<br />
to commemorate the 150th anniversary, the<br />
exhibition will feature railways on <strong>Australia</strong>n<br />
and world <strong>stamp</strong>s.<br />
Railways had a long history of carrying<br />
the mail across <strong>Australia</strong> and often the job of<br />
sorting mail was performed in railway vans<br />
called “travelling post offi ces”. Images of trains,<br />
tracks, stations and memorabilia will enthuse<br />
trainspotters and <strong>stamp</strong>spotters alike.<br />
