through the later nineteenth century travel by cobb & co coach was increasingly romanticized in literature but when henry lawson wrote the famous poem forewarning of its demise; "the lights of cobb & co" in 1897, the days of coaching were already coming to an end in victoria and new south wales and australia was an increasingly urbanised society. the nationalistic art, music and writing of late 19th century australia romanticized a pioneering rural or "bush myth" and cobb & co with its colourful drivers and managers easily fell into this tradition. writer sam everingham also notes that cobb & co was "the first great home grown service provider australia had known... born out of the country's gold rushes, the name cobb & co has come to represent the pioneering spirit, a willingness to battle against the odds, to reliably connect far-flung communities."
