Vintage travel poster of Port Arthur, Tasmania.

The city of Port Arthur began as the dream of railroad man Arthur Stilwell, who envisioned it as a trade and tourism center. By the time the city was incorporated in 1898, Stilwell had founded the Port Arthur Channel and Dock Co., which welcomed its first ship to the port of Port Arthur the following year. In just two years, oil was discovered in nearby Beaumont, kicking off the Spindletop boom that would see Port Arthur become the biggest oil refining locale in the world by the mid-20th century. In 1948 the town held its Golden Jubilee celebration, 50 years after its incorporation as a city which centered around a parade with drummers marching down Procter Street trailed by floats, including one with the Golden Jubilee queen and her court.

Port Arthur, situated in Tasmania, has a storied history that traces back to its establishment as a penal colony in 1833, serving as a place of confinement for British convicts. This remote island earned a reputation as the "inescapable" prison, implementing corrective measures like solitary confinement and mandatory church attendance in an effort to reform its inmates. While the settlement was eventually abandoned in 1877, it has since transformed into a destination of curiosity for visitors.

Martin Cash was one of Tasmania's most notorious bushrangers, famed for escaping Port Arthur - TWICE. He formed a gang with two other convicts, Englishman George Jones and Irishman Lawrence Kavanagh, called Cash and Co. It all came tumbling down when he tried to murder his cheating wife and got nabbed. After many years in prison he produced a book about his life and died as an old man - one of the few bushrangers to do so. The tagline here comes from a poem written about Cash and published in his memoirs.
