Typed on the front of the card next to the photo.
"The Colonial Room (1958).
This is a Press Photo of the exhibit that was put on at the Waikato Winter Show by the Cambridge Historical Society, on our behalf. It is a really much more crowded representation of a living-room of the period, say 1854, but there were so many good Historical articles offred, that it seemed a pity to leave any out. All had a genuine pioneer association, and were authentic 'pieces' in a well simulated setting. The exhibit drew record crowds to a very congested corner."LevelItem Last edited by: Clare Riddell
