Relics at Ravensthorpe Museum

A quick stop off at Ravensthorpe, on the way to Esperance, found us having a look through the museum. I would have loved to have spent more time looking at the items that have been saved from the scrap heap for this interesting look into the past.
Linking with Rubbish Tuesday

Saddles, harness, bellows and bits from the stables

Who can remember the old dentists chairs like this one.


Printing Press


Telephone Box, all but extinct since mobile phones




There was a little house all set up, these are some of the rooms as they would have used.  These old Singer  Treadle Sewing Machines are still going strong, they seem to last forever



A few kitchen utensils, scales, meat mincer, grater, mixing bowl, rolling pin too,  and Bon Ami to keep pots and pans spic and span


 A windup gramophone in the lounge room, bring on the sing along
