Summary

A group of people standing with a car which has been decorated with sprays of flowers, as a farewell tribute to Mrs Martin from the hostel. [The vehicle is believed to be a 1923 or 1924 Chevrolet Superior, 4 cylinder engine. From the photo it appears that the body maybe a 'C' cab utility, a style which was quite common, especially for use in the Australian country areas. The registration number (partly obscured) tends to indicate a South Australian first registration plate issue of late 1927, however this was possibly as a result of a change of ownership of the vehicle, where the previous plate was retained by the former owner for the purpose of their new vehicle. There is no SA prefix on the plate, confirming the photo was taken prior to January 1931.].
