"
Invicta Australian Business Diary No. 27 represents a classic piece of mid-twentieth-century Australian commercial stationery, issued here as three original unused (blank) examples for the years 1954, 1956, and 1957. Published by Sands & McDougall Pty Ltd of Melbourne—one of Australia's most prominent printers and publishers—the diaries were designed for professional and business use, offering a clear "one day on a page" layout alongside extensive reference material. Each volume includes multi-year calendars, postal and telegraphic rates, standard times of the world, business tables, and practical guidance such as first aid and directions for making a will, reflecting the everyday administrative needs of Australian offices in the post-war era.
Uniformly produced with sturdy boards, cloth spines, and restrained typographic covers bearing the Invicta emblem, these diaries are emblematic of 1950s Australian design and business culture. The survival of multiple consecutive years in unused condition is increasingly uncommon, lending the group added appeal as a cohesive set rather than isolated examples. Together, they offer a tangible snapshot of mid-century professional life and would appeal particularly to collectors of Australian ephemera, business and printing history enthusiasts, and those interested in post-war office culture and design.
