This booklet was produced by the City of Dandenong in 1964 extolling the virtues of the bustling manufacturing centre that still retains the charm of its rural setting. The publication covers the history, demographics, social and cultural life, businesses and factories. It was indeed a young city with an assured future...a fine place for people to live and for youngsters to grow up in.
With the ebb and flow of time, a little of Victoria's jettisoned past has washed up upon my desk: a discarded photo, a worn postcard, or a fading newspaper. Their long forgotten characters now retell their stories in a digital sampling, post by post. Their voices are my blog's vignettes. Researched and written by Heather Arnold.
