Post Office, Katanning
A sepia photograph of a brick building with twin gabled roof and windows below the gables. The building has two chimneys and a small wooden hut which has a window on the right hand side. The hut does not appear to be connected to the building. There are two men standing by the front door and two men on bicycles either side of the standing men. There is a wooden picket fence on the left of the building at a diagonal angle to the building and a wooden picket fence on the right hand side of the building. There is guttering along the road and there is a small ramp from the verge onto the road. There is a sign on the building which reads "POST & TELEGRAPH"
This picture of the Post & Telegraph building is similar to the picture in item HSA1985.33
