@mikejonesmelb This is a VERY late reply Mike but we hold objects relating to PMA at Museums Victoria I think. Distributed collections rock!!

@OzBigBen Thanks Ben sorry for slow response - haven’t been monitoring this account as much recently but will get back into it. But - Great shots! Nothing like a bit of OHS risk at work aka man riding the crane 😳

Does anyone know what these blokes at M.B. Johns factory were assembling? Archival Revival: A hard day's work https://t.co/VuOZGuOx5L #cameraatwork @museumsvictoria

[CameraAtWork @CameraAtWork]

Anyone else come across any terrific photographs of factories or factory life? We're interested in Vic ones but would love to see others too! Just tag us in @CameraAtWork or use #cameraatwork @UMelbArchives @Library_Vic @historyvictoria @naa_digital @thegoldmuseum @VicCollections

[Dr Louise Blake @Littlegee71]

Excellent idea. For @PHAVic members this would also be a great PD opportunity https://t.co/7pGQBNSKyN

Oh the tedium of sorting through top and tailed beans at Harvest Foods Ltd, #Moorabbin 1968-1978 (NAA: B941, FOOD/PROCESSING/VEGETABLES/2) @naa_digital @naagovau @museumsvictoria #thecameraatwork

We are less inclined to see smoking factories as #picturesque these days but not back in 1909. Postcard of #Richmond factories with scenic view of Yarra in foreground @historyvictoria (PC-0642) #cameraatwork @museumsvictoria

[CameraAtWork @CameraAtWork]

Titled 'Bachus Marsh [sic] milk factory. Maffra' (c1920) but which one is it? Bacchus Marsh or #Maffra? Postcard in @historyvictoria collection (P-1314) #cameraatwork @museumsvictoria

[CameraAtWork @CameraAtWork]

Maffra Beet Sugar factory pix in lots of collections! This lovely postcard from the @historyvictoria postcard collection (P-1312). And you can learn about the fascinating behind it at the Maffra Sugar Beet Museum (https://t.co/dccCrvFl3w). @museumsvictoria #cameraatwork

[CameraAtWork @CameraAtWork]

Interesting that some factory images end up as commercial postcards. This #Euroa Butter Factory #postcard, c1910 in Royal Historical Society of Victoria postcard collection (PC-1126) is a great example #Ilovebutterfactories #cameraatwork @historyvictoria @museumsvictoria

Following on from the #Maffra theme yesterday - the Maffra Co-operative and the Nestle Factory (1963). Via the Victorian Places website https://t.co/kBnwxbgCIB @museumsvictoria #cameraatwork @UQ_News @MonashUni
