Summary

Description
English: Memorandum from Tost & Rohu, Sidney, Taxidermists, Furriers, Tanners and Island Curio Dealers, 1904.
‘The Queerest Shop in Australia’
Articulators and taxidermists, fancy work suppliers and dealers in furs and ethnographic objects, they became famous all over Sydney for their extraordinary array of curios. Advertisements of the day implored that ‘Visitors to Sydney should not leave without calling upon Tost & Rohu – All kinds of Taxidermical Work executed in First-class style’.
Dealing particularly in Australian and Pacific Island material they also continued to provide a steady supply of artefacts and specimens to the Australian Museum - many of which are still in the collections today. The Mammals department for instance holds specimens purchased from the business including an American Squirrel stuffed and mounted by the Tost women.
