The Bowman History Room was created to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Bowman Family business, E M Bowman & Co Pty Ltd, established in 1921.
This amazing collection of shop items, photographs and account books from 1921 onwards traces both the development of one family and their business and also the growth of the town of Whitemark and Flinders Island as a whole.
The most perused item is the huge scrapbook of newspaper and magazine articles collected over many years by Elvie Bowman.
You will find catalogues and account ledgers that depict a vastly different world to the one we live in today.
Memories will flood back for older generations, while younger generations will wonder how people survived without modern conveniences.
