Independent Church, Collins Street, Melbourne, c. 1875 ; This photograph of the Independent Church, which is located on the north-east corner of Russell and Collins streets, has been taken from the west and south-side of Collins Street. The building has been known as St Michaels Uniting Church since 1971. To the left of the image, the Burke and Wills memorial statue in the streets' intersection, was unveiled in 1865 and acted as a roundabout until 1886 when it was moved to Spring Street to make way for tram tracks. One of the many glass slides purchased from retailers or specifically made for illustrated lectures given by Isaac Selby between c. 1930 and c. 1955 to raise money for the Old Pioneers Memorial Fund.; Glass slide; Images collectionPhotography
Bank of Australasia Building, north-west corner of Collins street and Queen street, c. 1878; c. 1878; A-98.1-B
A-98.1-B; Bank of Australasia Building, north-west corner of Collins street and Queen street, c. 1878; The bank building with Australian Alliance Assurance Company to its left. Front elevation of this two storeyed building with its entrance facing Collins Street. Gas lamps on the footpaths are prominent, and two men standing on the corner. The bank bought the block of land in 1858 but the building was not erected until 1876 when it became the head office after the administration of the Bank of Australasia was transferred from Sydney to Melbourne. The architects were Barnes and Reed. Remodelling was carried out in 1929 by architect Kingsley A. Henderson, when the building was entirely demolished and rebuilt with the exception of the four external walls. The Bank merged with the Union Bank to form the ANZ Bank Ltd in 1951. [Ref: Paynting, Harold and Grant, Malcolm (eds), 'Victoria Illustrated 1834-1984', James Flood Charity Trust Melbourne, 1985.] It was amongst the first buildings listed on the Victorian Heritage Register on 9 October 1974, and later on the Register of the National Estate in 1983.

(The "Age"); Tail of a Douglas DC-4 and the nose of a Douglas DC-3, both belonging to Australian National Airways (ANA), possibly at Essendon Airport. Another unidentified Douglas DC-3 in the background. The DC-4 served originally with the United States Army Air Force and a US civil operator before being purchased by Australian National Airways (ANA) in 1948. It was entered on the Australian register as VH-ANF and given the name "Loongana". (This was actually the second ANA DC-4 registered VH-ANF and named "Loongana" - the first was sold to British Commonwealth Pacific Airlines.) It was converted to a freighter in 1957 and transferred to Ansett-ANA in the same year. It was sold to Civil Air Transport Co. of Taipei and cancelled from the Australian register in 1967. The DC-3 in the foreground was built as a C-47 military transport and operated by the United States Army Air Force until purchased by ANA in 1946. It was registered as VH-ANT and given the name "Wandana". It was transferred to Ansett-ANA in 1957 and converted to a freighter. It was sold overseas to a Cambodian operator and was shot down over Cambodia by Communist rebels in 1973.
