An Archery Cinderella.
 

I don't usually post a lot of my junk,
for fear of boring people, however........

This is a special occaision to thank one of my off-list
friends, who has helped me from time to time.

Around the time of the first postage stamp, the Penny Black
(October 1840) A one, Mr. W. Liardet, the owner of Brighton Pier Hotel,
Port Melbourne, Victoria, formed a small group of archers.
(The first archery club in Aust?)

This is a centenary cinderella (definitely a label :)
from 1939 to celebrate Mr Liardet.

As an aside:
1855 AD - January - The 'Melbourne Herald'
newspaper reported an archery competition held at
Emerald Hill, South Melbourne which was won by an American with a longbow.
