Curated by Gary Corbett and Ann Wookey<br />

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>n Railways<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 />
