Not for loan. Copies available for purchase
Notes
Multicultural material. Originally dated as 1949 but the cars are more recent. The shrine is shown in 2 separate locations (movable?). Theory is that the gate was a prop used during a visit of Japanese models to Tralee in November 1969 (see Canberra Times 8 Nov 1969). Unlikely to be Environa. Theory not yet validated (July 2013)!
