A man and a lady are to the rear of it and looking in at the display.
The backs of another couple are behind, admiring a wall display.

Contextual Information

Believed to have been taken as promotional material for the Toodyay Tourist Centre, which managed many events and festivals at Toodyay from the late 1970s to the 1990s. At the time the tourist centre operated out of the ground floor of Connor's Mill. In 1998 the Toodyay Tourist Centre Inc. amalgamated with the Shire of Toodyay and its assets were transferred to the Shire including, it is assumed, this photograph.
