Ron Bidwell and the Wallnuts, a group of traditional signwriters, created and maintain the vintage advertising signs that are found on the walls of buildings throughout Portland. The signs dating from 1895 to 1960, depict common, everyday products found in Australian homes from that period.
Visit the museum to experience our new exhibit focusing on the Signs of Yesteryear.
Discover the origin of everyday products such as Arnott’s, Milo and Sunlight Soap. Learn about the history of Australia brands such as Stamina clothing and Federal Safety matches.
