Love all those beautiful ladies wearing their best coats and hats.

Heather Newby

Jill Smith Mum always wore a coat downtown when it got cold.. and she wore gloves and a hat too.

Darryl Smith
Very cool photo

Del Godfrey
They all look so beautifully attired!

Heather Gaulter
Love their coats

Susan Shanahan
What a fabulously stylish group of ladies.

Heather Newby
Susan Shanahan yes.. their coats look so comfy and warm

Jill Wilson
I am pleased we have moved on though with the fashion!

Cherie Mortensen
Jill Wilson Probably high quality woollen coats over cotton frocks. How natural is that. No polyester anywhere. Those were the days.

Heather Newby
Cherie Mortensen and the frocks would be beautifully made too

The second person from the right looks like my aunt, Nancy Nimmo (née Tucker)

Elaine Knowles
Judy Wood is that Edna second from the right

Pauline Barrow
I had to have a laugh at the hats and coats

Bruce Knight
The absence of men, sadly, is a correlation to the able men volunteering to fight the aggression in Europe, in the early 1940’s (assuming this pic was taken prior to 1945).
