Overview

A hardwood stand which has a square resting on a T-shaped base. In the centre of the base is an upright held in place by a metal bracket.
The upright is in two parts, connected by a hinge and a butterfly nut, which enables the upright to be folded in half. The top section has a dowel crosspiece with a rubber stopper on each end.

Historical information

The banner was designed and donated by Eve Day, and made by the donor's daughter, Carrie Archibald, for the Armadale Probus Club. The design depicts the old church at Minnawarra Park as a symbol of Armadale. Meetings were held at the Armadale Bowling Club on the third Monday of each month.
