For them no more the Morse Code
sound
Now their line has gone to ground
And as the shades of evening fall
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM
COLLECTOR Ron McMullen:
I have been collecting Telegraph Keys for many years, specialising
in Australian keys, but include telegraph keys from many countries in my
collection. Since this is the only available collection of Australian telegraph
keys and telegraph history, it will be particularly useful for serious
telegraph historians and collectors.
