Works in this vein include the ballets Appalachian Spring Billy the Kid and Rodeo his Fanfare for the Common Man and Third Symphony.

32756Third series. Sydney : Printed by the Author 1874. Octavo half-crushed morocco over marbled papered boards spine in compartments lettered in gilt edges dyed red presentation inscription to preliminary blank to Joseph James Phelps Member of the NSW Legislative Assembly 'J. J. Phelps Esq. M. P. with the author's compliment 2 August 1875' double page lithographed view of the Ball pp. vi; viii; 96 scattered foxing else very good. John Rae was a Scottish born public servant author and painter who emigrated to Australia in 1839. 'While town clerk he wrote a long 'serio-comic' poem about the first mayoral fancy dress ball given by J. R. Wilshire.' ADB. It was first published in the Sydney Morning Herald April 1845. Rae's memoirs were self-published in 1869 with this Third Series issued in 1874. All were had printed by the author on a small Albion Press 'in my leisure hours by the midnight lamp to study the mysteries of the art of printing' Prolegomena. The frontispiece is 'a reduced photo-lithographed copy of Nicholas' picture of the Ball. It is a clever sketch by a clever but neglected artist whom some of our old colonists will remember as a miniature-painter for many years in Sydney'. This refers to William Nicholas c. 1807 - 1854 noted society portraitist of the time. The Ball was apparently quite an event 'It was a gorgeous spectacle; and unless we had been present we could not have conceived it possible for Sydney in its present condition to have brought together such a vast variety of costly and magnificent dresses and costumes of all nations as greeted our eyes on the present occasion.' - Rae.
