Photograph - Murals, GMH Social Centre, Fishermen's Bend, David Thompson, 1997

Historical information

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.
