Rita Hall - Murton (murt0185)
Rita Hall - Murton
Photograph of a young woman, wearing a dark dress and holding an accordion, standing in a field with the ends of houses behind her; she has been identified as Rita Hall of Murton
Date: 1950 - 1959
The lady is standing in the "Demey Field)", where the Federation Square Prefabs were later built. To the right of Harrogate Terrace the steelwork frame used during the construction of the Rex Cinema can be seen. Edison Street is also visible sloping left to right across the photograph. The Rex was built in 1939, so this dates the photograph approximately around this date.
