Historical information

This flyer was printed to advertise a dance to help raise funds for the building of the Armadale Clinic and Play Centre. The dance was to be held at the Armadale District Hall. This event could have happened at any time between 1936 (when the hall was opened) and 1966 (introduction of decimal currency). Its most likely time was in the 1940s as the Kelmscott Infant health centre was opened around this time.
