thanks for this, it is fantastic.....I am sure it will stir memories for
different people but for me it reminds me so much of the backcourt
junction of Fairbairn St & Baltic St. where I lived. |
Extract from e-mail Robert Newbigging, Canada,
August 2002 "Will. I haven't written in quite a time. We have had a busy and very hot, dry summer here. I have attached a small watercolour I am working on at the moment. I got the reference from Virtual Mitchell...... I embelished the painting by adding the pailings, the washing and the large puddle in the foreground........it is just as I remember Bridgeton in the late 40's &50's......" |
