Jacaranda Avenue Grafton Grafton, NSW, Australia. From the early 1900's to date there has always been a powerful Kytherian presence in the town of Grafton, NSW. No less than 7 cafes were owned by Kytherians in Grafton in...

Angelo Crethar and Nick Crones established the Vogue Milk Bar next to the new theatre in 1936, the place remaining under this name until it closed in the 1960s. Presumably this tea/coffee pot, (or milk jug?), was part of...

These plates are from the same batch as the Feros plate, dated ’11-1923’, suggesting that in one trip the gifted travelling salesman made a successful pitch to a number of Greek café proprietors. Peter Nick Bavea revampe...

This plate came from a batch dated ’11-1923’ and was probably part of a bulk order placed by the extended Feros clan, who had branches at Byron Bay, Ballina and Lismore at this time (having sold out of Mullumbimby in 192...
