EJ Lonsdale Memorial Perpetual Trophy
Silver plated ice bucket of tapering cylindrical form with an applied fruiting vine border and lion mask ring drop handles. Maker Stokes of Melbourne.
Awarded For: Awarded to the Supreme Exhibit in Ring 1.
Donated By: Donated by the Cat Fanciers Association of NSW in memory of its Foundation President, Mr EJ Lonsdale, who was also one of the prime movers in the formation of the RASCC and its first Chairman. Originally awarded for the best Junior Male Cat in Show and could be won outright by any Exhibitor who won three times. In 1994 the trophy was changed to best Male Cat in Show, as there were no longer junior classes, the trophy alternated between groups. If a junior class is reintroduced this trophy will again be given to best Junior Male Cat in Show. In 2014 the award was again changed to best Cat, as male and female are no longer judged separately - the trophy continued to alternate between groups until 2017 when the award was again changed.

Dr Jim Watts Perpetual Trophy
Silver plated bronze sculpture of two alpacas mounted on wooden plinth. First awarded in 2022 in memory of veterinary scientist Dr Jim Watts (1950-2019). Dr Watts was a visionary CSIRO wool scientist who led the world in scientifically defining the parameters of length and density which determine productivity and value in fleece. The science was applied initially to Merino sheep and introduced in the 1990s to the nascent alpaca industry. His legacy continues to lead decision-making in the selective breeding of alpacas based on skin and fleece traits, focussing on maximising both the quality and quantity of Australian alpaca fleece. Dr Watts was also known for his promotion of the ethical treatment of animals and sustainable farming practices.
Awarded For: Highest Scoring Alpaca Fleece
Donated By: SRS Alpaca Breeders of the World represented by Jane-Marie Forrest

Small, silver cup by Georg Jensen, mounted on a varnished wooden plinth. Heather Gibson first visited the Royal Easter Show as a young girl in the 1930s, and as a vet student she worked as a groom in the Cattle Section in the 1940s. When her husband, Andrew Gibson, joined the RAS Council in 1984, Heather began her long association with Arts and Crafts. She worked as a Steward for the Arts and Crafts Section, even after Andrew's death, and was always fascinated to learn about various crafts from the Judges. Heather valued the friendships she made with other Stewards and the RAS staff, and always helped pack cakes and scones that had not won for donation to charities.
