Historical information

Appears to be a trimmed version of an advertising poster for the bay steamers, Weeroona, Hygeia and Ozone.

The original poster has a brown border with 'Health and Pleasure Trips on Port Phillip Bay' above the picture and 'by the "Weeroona" "Hygeia" and "Ozone"' below the picture. The border and some of the picture, including the artist's signature, have been removed to create this item. The Nepean Historical Society Inc. hold an intact version of the advertising poster.

The full version of the image was also used for a postcard by B R Gowan & Co held by the State Library of Victoria.
