Income and expenditure of the Communist Party Australia (Victoria Branch?) from 1915-1954. Includes memberships/affiliations. Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Party_of_Australia) describes the Party as originating in 1920 although the beginning of these records precedes that date by five years. It is also noted that the party officially dissolved in 1992, although the record held ceases at 1954 when the funds were transferred to Building Trades Federation Trust Account. The records are contemporaneous with Robert Menzies' attempted ban of the Party in 1951. The records cease in 1954 which was a time of active paranoia in Australia about Communism. The Labor Party split happened in 1955 leading to the formation of the Democratic Labor Party (a party describing itself at anti-communist).Politics and government.

These photographs, taken by The Advocate in 1990, provide views of Hampshire Road, Sunshine, looking south towards Devonshire Road. The images document the appearance of Sunshine's principal commercial street and capture the character of the town centre during a period of ongoing change and development. The images capture various business including the Video Library, Westpac Bank, former Commonwealth of Australia Bank, John Kontek & Sons, Chemists, and a Watchmaker & Jewellers Shop. Hampshire Road became Sunshine’s main shopping centre in the early 1900s, expanded rapidly through the 1920s–1930s, flourished as a social hub in the post‑war decades, and remains the suburb’s central commercial strip. Early 1900s – First commercial strip forms The section between 72–98 Hampshire Road began trading in the first part of the 1900s, with early businesses including hairdressers, fruiterers, grocers, confectioners, newsagents, fishmongers, and tobacconists. 1920s–1930s – Rapid expansion of shops Multiple shop rows were built during this period, including: 68–70 Hampshire Road (built 1925) 72–98 Hampshire Road (shops operating by 1926–1930) 107–117 Hampshire Road (shops built 1923–1925) Businesses included grocers, butchers, confectioners, wood yards, dairies, and general stores—typical of a growing working‑class industrial suburb. 1930s–1940s – Social and civic hub emerges The strip became a major meeting place, especially around Homewood’s Café at 107–109 Hampshire Road, famous for its jukebox and proximity to the Sunshine Theatre, Town Hall, and Masonic Hall. It was a magnet for teenagers, servicemen, and families. Post‑war era – Consolidation as Sunshine’s main centre After WWII, Hampshire Road remained the suburb’s busiest commercial spine. Key features included: Cafés and milk bars Butchers and grocers Newsagents Timber yards Small specialty shops This period cemented Hampshire Road as Sunshine’s civic heart. 1960s – Renaming and redevelopment The section near the Town Hall (107–117 Hampshire Road) was renamed Sun Crescent in the 1960s, reflecting changes in road layout and civic planning Late 20th century – Modernisation Some older shop rows were demolished or redeveloped into service stations, townhouses, or new commercial buildings. Examples include: Demolition of the shop at 72 Hampshire Road (formerly Ted Whitten’s Foodland) Redevelopment of timber yards into townhouse complexes 2000s–present – Contemporary Sunshine CBD Hampshire Road continues as the primary retail and civic axis of Sunshine, hosting: Restaurants and cafés Grocers and specialty stores Medical clinics Banks and services Civic buildings and public spaces It remains the anchor of Sunshine’s designated Major Activity Centre.These photographs are significant for documenting Hampshire Road, Sunshine's principal commercial street, during the early 1990s. They provide a valuable record of the appearance, layout and activity of the town centre at a time of ongoing change and development.6846.01 - Sunshine Shopping Centre Hampshire Road Sunshine 1990 Photographs (Advocate 492.3).JPG 6846.02 - Sunshine Shopping Centre Hampshire Road Sunshine 1990 Photographs (Advocate 492.3).JPG 6846.03 - Sunshine Shopping Centre Hampshire Road Sunshine 1990 Photographs (Advocate 492.3).JPG 6846.04 - Sunshine Shopping Centre Hampshire Road Sunshine 1990 Photographs (Advocate 492.3).JPGsunshine shopping centre, hampshire road, sunshine
