In this episode we step into the strange world of town politics circa 1864. We are introduced to Mr. Charles Gamon by way of an unusual announcement he felt compelled to publish to the Electorate of Collingwood. Ken asks what job would you go to great lengths to get out of? And finally, we provide you with more information on our "cheeky" new T-shirts at the museum. Get them while they last! https://www.facebook.com/collingwoodmuseum
