Historic: The object shows the jetty when it was shorter than the present length and when it was still attached to the railway jetty.
The object is typical of the types of souvenirs that were available in seaside tourist towns, like Busselton, in the early 20th century
Aesthetic: a charming piece in its miniaturization
