Photograph, Watts' Blackburn Dairy, c1929

Historical information

The Watts family bought the dairy at 20 Albert St. in 1929 and increased the business from one to seven carts. From Albert St. they moved to Rialway Parade. In the beginning their milk came from a family dairy farm located in Moorabbin but after the Government required all milk to be pasteurised they obtained their milk from Crumps' dairy in Surrey Hills as was more efficient
