Exhibition | Return to Sender

Mundaring & Hills Historical Society Inc.

The new ‘Return to Sender’ exhibition explores the history of the post offices in the Shire of Mundaring. Post offices have played an important role in the social and economic development of our localities and continue to do so today. Methods of communication such as the handwritten letter, telegrams and, later telephone, were vital in the early development of communities. Hence, the establishment of a post office was a priority.

The exhibition will showcase photographs of the post office buildings through the decades, as well as some of the stories connected to the people who operated them. On display will be telephones, handwritten letters and various memorabilia celebrating past and present services provided by the post office.
