Hume Reservoir: c.1930 'HUME RESERVOIR/RIVER DIVERSION' real photograph postcard showing the wall of the dam near Albury in an advanced stage of construction, a bit soiled, unused. [We expect both the Murray River and the Mitta Mitta River required diversion to permit the construction, which took place between 1919 and 1936]
Kilmore Military Camp: 1912 real photograph card 'KILMORE CAMP 1912' showing the Camp brass band leading the troops on a route march, an officer on his horse watching on, used under cover. A Receiving Office only operated 4.4.1912 until 12.4.1912. [Social message mentions "...Camp Life in Kilmore..."]
Kilmore Military Camp: 1912 real photograph card 'KILMORE CAMP 1912' showing a string of horse-drawn vehicles approaching the Camp along a dusty road with Kilmore in the background, used with part-strike of the shield ' 2 /MILITARY/AP10/12/ENCAMPMENT' d/s (very scarce on cover), minor corner bend hardly detracts.
