Summary

Colour photograph of Jack Wheeler receiving a gift at his retirement from the Tool Room of the Camera, Reel & Sundries department in Building 15, Kodak Australasia Pty Ltd Coburg, circa 1973. He is pictured here with Stuart Sanderson, Building 8, and Bill Tester, Building 12A.

This image was housed in an album of photographs and captions created by Yvonne Cameron (formerly Welch) during her period of employment at Kodak from 1964 - 1975. Yvonne worked in the canteen and camera shop at the Coburg plant and in the office at Cameras, Reels and Sundries.

This album was donated as part of the Kodak Oral History Project. It complements the Kodak Heritage Collection of products, promotional materials, photographs and working life artefacts collected from Kodak Australasia in 2005, when the Melbourne manufacturing plant at Coburg closed down.
