NOTE: It is interesting to note that Franklin purportedly wrote this novel in ten weeks at the age of 16. The fame that the book’s publication brought her caused her deep distress especially as she was quite disappointed with the work so much so that she stopped the sale of the book and rejected all approaches for its reprinting. She remarked that she would not have it republished even if she was offered 1000 pounds (a fortune in those days): “I should have to re-read it and I’m sure I shall never have the pluck to do that ... I can’t write a thing to please myself now, and what I wrote as a first go-off must be pretty terrible”. (Colin Roderick - Miles Franklin: Her Brilliant Career). It is often speculated that she destroyed the original manuscript of the work. $1,000 133 FRASER, John. On the Languages of Oceania. (I: The Malayo-Polynesian Theory). (Sydney 1892). 8vo. Wrappers.

STOREKEEPERS/MERCHANTS, MOSS VALE, N.S.W.: Four (4) pencil sketches of the enterprise, commencing with first, in 1867 depicting a simple weatherboard building established by James Taylor at the time when the railway from Sydney opened at Moss Vale. Subsequent depictions show the progress of the store in 1874, 1889, and finally in 1902. The artist is not recorded but the quality of the drawings shows the artist to be professional. Each sketch measures approx. 16 x 12 cm. plus good margins. The first store was located near where the Dominican Convent was later built (now St. Paul’s International College). Some years later, Taylor opened a new store in Argyle Street, handing over to his two sons Charles Sidney and James Joyce Taylor. The Taylor Brothers Store had departments catering for every need - grocery, hardware, gifts, furniture, drapery, footwear, clothing, firearms & explosives, produce, timber yard, joinery and undertakers.
