Description of Content
Two men on a horse and cart (hearse?). One man, the town undertaker, wears a top hat and holds a whip aloft. A sign attached to the shaft of the cart reads 'Vote for Mountain'. He was standing for election to the Korumburra Council. The Korumburra Primary School is in the background; a boy stands by the horse's head.
