I was just walking past these on Tuesday, you did well to get a picture without loads of cars in the street. They are in such a great position on the corner, they really stand out.
MELBOURNE ART DECO
In 2009 Robin Grow published a book on Melbourne Art Deco, with images largely supplied by David Thompson. The book quickly sold out and he is pleased to say that it has now been re-published by Brolga Press, with updates, errors corrected and a new cover.
Best of all, it is selling for about $25 in the shops and on-line. Art Deco & Modernism Society members can purchase a copy from me for $22, (includes postage within Australia). For overseas orders please email for postage rates. Contact me at robingrow@ozemail.com.au if you are interested, and advise if you would like the book to be dedicated and/or signed.

ReplyDeleteDo you know what date they would be?
Hah. I took these pictures on Wednesday afternoon so I'm glad the cars kept away.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the City of Yarra Review of Heritage Precincts by Graeme Butler & Associates in 2007 they were built in 1939.
Lovely details and brickwork. Makes me think of a lot of what we see in Queens.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can go exploring in Queens one day.
