Photograph - Wedding procession Maree Menzel & Marcus Davidson, Station Street to Yacht Club, Pat Grainger, 1989
Maree and Marcus of 63 Station Street married after several years of living together. As she is a fashion designer, she designed and made all costumes; as he is a musician, some of his friends played jazz and rock for the procession to the Port Melbourne Yacht Club for the ceremony. Only three neighbours (including photographer) were invited to accompany the procession. The wedding must have been one of the last functions in the clubhouse before it burned.From a group of photographs of the 1989 wedding procession of Maree Menzel and Marcus Davidson, from the railway reserve near 63 Station Street to the Port Melbourne Yacht Club: procession in Beach Street, Swallow & Ariell, Sandridge Hotel and former cable tram depot in viewcelebrations fetes and exhibitions, built environment, maree menzel, marcus davidson, amelia finch -

Postcard, Les Grands Ports du Monde MELBOURNE (Australie)
This small, French postcard presumably shows an artist's impression of Bay Street looking towards the Bay. However, although there are trams , the buildings are not recognisable as Port Melbourne and several are definitely not Port ( i.e. spires & domes). Town Pier is not depicted and the configuration of the ships on the Bay is wrong. Also,the supposedly Australian flag, in the top left corner, is not correct.

Artist's impression of Bay Street leading down to Port Phillip Bay on the front and a text panel on the back.bay street, port phillip bay -
