Apparently it came there via the former publican, Jim, who now owns the General Store. I've heard that he has a collection of sideshow and amusement paraphernalia.
The pub used to have a Tiny Town model of a gold mine, and the diorama case is still there, but Tiny Town seems to be a bit of a ghost town these days.
A good pub to visit if you're driving from Melbourne up to Echuca.
My most recent book, ‘Vagabondage’ (UWAP) is a memoir about selling up my beautiful house and garden in Creswick, Victoria, and living in a campervan for a year. Previous books include ‘How to Conceive of a Girl’ (fiction) and ‘Things in a Glass Box’ (poetry). I’ve also written articles and opinion pieces for newspapers such as the Age and for ABC Radio. I have a PhD from the University of Ballarat and have been awarded several Literature Board grants and some fellowships and prizes. Find out more and read some of my writing at www.bethspencer.com.
