This paper honour roll takes the form of an illuminated address, painted with water colours. It is presented in a timber frame, behind glass. The top of the page is richly decorated. The illustrations include the emblem of the Australian Army (Australian Imperial Force), four flags, a simplified version of the badge of NSW, as well as drawings of flora including leaves and wattle. The dates 1914 and 1919 are enclosed by wreaths. The names are printed in black, below the decorations. The alphabetical list includes 124 soldiers and two nurses. On either side of the names are two stylised columns and a decorative motif is centred at the bottom of the page. Colonel Bruxner M.L.A. unveiled the memorial on 7 July 1920. Shortly after on 12 July, The Glen Innes Examiner published a detailed account of the occasion. Colonel Bruxner addressed the audience and then unveiled the roll. The roll was produced by publishing and stationery business John Sands, Ltd. of Sydney. Established by the English immigrant John Sands in Sydney in 1837, in time, the company specialised in greeting cards, illuminated addresses and other forms of stationery. The roll was once located in the Emmaville Public School building. It is now in the foyer of the Central School building, which was constructed in 1959. Both the Public School and the Central School are located on the same site. Access to the memorial is restricted because of its location on school grounds. The Emmaville School was established in October 1875 as a Provisional School. In 1878, it became a Public School and then a Central School in January 1944.
