Photograph - Progress' mural, GMH Social Centre, Fishermen's Bend, David Thompson, 1997
Murals: Eileen Robertson, a GMH employee, was asked to do the murals in 1948 for the launching of the Holden. Her brief was to 'do something to do with transport'. In the event, they were covered anyway. She did not even view them again until 1992, around the time the murals were cleaned and restored. The left mural shows pioneer transport and on the right is the future. David Thompson photographed the Social Centre in 1997 by arrangement with member Wendy Morris archivist for GMH.From a series of black and white photos of GMH Social Centre by David Thompson: Southwest corner of hall and 'Progress' muralindustry - manufacturing, built environment, david thompson, general motors-holden, gmh -

Photograph - Railway Reserve, Sandridge, William Paterson, 1870s
One of a series assembled for the Melbourne Exhibition of 1873, original mount hanging in Engineering Department at Port Melbourne Town Hall at 19-9-1994. This set of prints belonged to Town Clerk Syd ANDERSON, then to his daughter-in-law Phyllis ANDERSON (donor). Accompanied by list of captions, both hand written and typed (the latter a partial listing). View from pedestrian bridge over railway, looking southeast over 'ornamental' Railway Reserve, 1870s. Probably taken from footbridge just north of Raglan Street; open space is believed to be swamp drainage area between Raglan and Spring Street. (Location usually attributed to Farrell Street - i.e. taken from footbridge at Bridge and Station, but this proves unlikely as there had been no construction on the swamp between Bridge and Farrell until later.)"P.
